Butternut Squash Panini

Instructions

  • Heat the oven to 425 degrees.
  • Toss the squash with 3 tablespoons of coconut oil, red pepper flakes, and a touch of salt. Place on a baking sheet and bake for 15-20 minutes.
  • While the squash is baking, heat olive oil in a saute pan over low/medium heat. Add the onions and cook until soft, 7-9 minutes. Add the vinegar and maple syrup or honey and cook until thickened.
  • Combine the squash and onions in a bowl and mash to combine. In a separate bowl, mix together the goat cheese, parsley, and mint.
  • Take each slice of bread and spread it with some of the goat cheese. Top with the arugula, squash mix, and remaining slice of bread. Place in a heated skillet with a small amount of olive oil or a panini press to toast each side and melt the cheese.
