What an amazing and simple recipe this is. Butternut squash stuffed with Grass-fed ground beef, bacon and onions. Then to “top” it off, caramelized onions in balsamic vinegar and it is heavenly. Hope you enjoy as much as we did since we ate the whole squash with everything else. So let’s see, that means the Civilized Caveman Team ingested 4 pounds of squash, 2 pounds of beef, and lots of onions. Yep seems perfectly normal to us, and plus who cares? It tasted GOOD and we ate it.
