Roasted Butternut Squash & Poblano Three Cheese Pizza

Roasted Butternut Squash & Poblano Three Cheese Pizza is a delicious, cheesy autumn meal that’s easy to prepare! 

Three months.

No seriously. 

There are only three months left in this decade. DO WHAT? When Mr. B casually brought that to my attention other day, I kind of freaked out for a minute. Like, where the hell did the time go? Did I accomplish enough in ten years? Does it even matter? It’s a lot to process. 

I took a deep breath and realized I started blogging ten years ago. Can I get a high-five? I also quit my full-time job in finance to become a cookbook author. What else…..oh! Went to Jordan to celebrate our ten year wedding anniversary. Moved three times in the same zip code. Welcomed a dog and a baby. So this decade has been busy! 

With that, I think these last three months I’m just going to Netflix and chill. Or something basic because after having Charlie I need a moment to just be. You know, regroup and refocus before we start down another decade. Does that make sense? What are you doing these last three months besides surviving the holidays? 

If you need something to do you might want to make this Roasted Butternut Squash & Poblano Three Cheese Pizza. What’s not to like about roasted squash, peppers, and copious amounts of cheese? The flavor of this pizza is full of autumn spice and is super easy to prepare. Just roast the veggies, pile it on some flatbread and bake.

Love this as a quick appetizer to serve at your next harvest gathering. Also, it’s great washed down with an apple cider cocktail.

Alright, the countdown is on.
