Spicy Sausage, Kale, and Farro-Stuffed Roasted Acorn Squash

spicy sausage, kale, and farro-stuffed roasted acorn squash // my bacon-wrapped life

This right here is totally my middle-of-Februrary dregs-of-winter love food.

It has so many warm and hearty winter-y things all in one (Spicy sausage! Kale! Whole grains! Squash!) and it’s so comforting and filling and cozy and actually quite healthy. Because we’ve all been sitting around in the cozy indoors on our couches watching movies and drinking wine and eating pizza in our sweatpants for weeks on end, right? And maybe we could all use some healthy comfort food love? (Please, please tell me it’s not just me?!)

Bacon, Kale, and Caramelized Onion Quiche with Buttermilk Oat Crust

bacon, kale, and caramelized onion quiche with buttermilk oat crust // my bacon-wrapped life

It’s January 4th, which means that well-intentioned resolution-makers are busy strapping on their FitBits, busting their ass at those pilates classes, and eating kale like it’s goin’ out of style.

At least I have the kale part.

Butternut Squash and Bacon Pizza

Butternut Squash and Bacon Pizza | My Bacon-Wrapped Life

This is my absolute perfect winter pizza.

And by that I mean it’s my perfect how-is-it-still-zero-degrees-on-March-2nd pizza.

I can’t look ahead to asparagus and artichokes and other signs of spring. I can’t think about bathing suits or sunshine or Vitamin D. It’s just too painful. Let’s just hang out here, in our PJs in the middle of the day (because obviously we haven’t been outside yet), gazing out of our snow-filled windows and eating butternut squash and bacon pizza. This is my happy place right now.
