TexMex Vegetarian Baked Butternut

  • 1/2 small Butternut (Halved and Pitted)
  • 1/2 tsp. Olive Oil
  • Salt & Pepper
  • 1/2 cup Corn
  • 1/2 cup Black beans
  • 1/4 Jalapeno
  • 1/2 cup Mini Heirloom Tomatoes (Any tomatoes will do)
  • 1/4 cup Pasta Sauce
  • 1/4 cup Reduced Fat Shredded Cheese
  • 1 tbsp. Cilantro
  1. Coat the Butternut with the Olive oil, season with Salt & Pepper and place cut side up on a baking tray. Bake at 475'F for 45-60min- testing with a fork to see if it is soft.
  2. Mix the rest of the ingredients together (except for the cheese), and scoop it onto the cooked Butternut.
  3. Now top it off with the Cheese and return to the oven to bake until the Cheese is melted or browned. (This can be sped up by placing the oven on 'Broil').
  4. Garnish with Cilantro (Optional)
  5. DONE!
