Ingredients:

Serving

1 (1 lb) butternut squash, cut in half and seeded
extra virgin olive oil
1/2 onion, finely chopped
2 large carrots, finely chopped
1 small red bell pepper, finely chopped
1 lb ground beef
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 (28 oz) can crushed tomatoes
1 bay leaf
1 tbsp chili powder
black pepper (to taste)
salt (to taste)
1/2-1 cup chicken broth ( as desired)
1 tbsp tamari ( fermented soy sauce) or 1 tbsp regular soy sauce
1 tbsp parsley, chopped

Directions:

In oven or toaster oven, bake butternut squash, cut side down, on a baking sheet at 350F degrees for 35 to 40 minutes. Remove from heat. Cool slightly and carefully remove the skin that should easily peel off. Dice the squash into 1/2 inch cubes.
Meanwhile, sauté onion, bell pepper, and carrots in olive oil until lightly golden.
Add beef and garlic and fry on medium-high heat until browned.
Add butternut squash, crushed tomatoes, bay leaf, chili powder, black pepper and salt. If the chili is too thick, add a little chicken broth or water. Chili should be thin enough to stir but not soupy.
Bring to a boil and simmer for 25 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Remove from heat. Discard bay leaf. Stir in tamari and parsley. Serve with cornbread.
