  • In a large mixing bowl, add honey, salt, olive oil, and white pepper. Mix to combine, and add squash slices to the mixture. Toss to coat.
  • Spread squash slices evenly on a parchment-lined baking sheet and bake for 25-30 minutes, checking every 10 minutes for desired tenderness.

  • In a large mixing bowl, combine olive oil, herbs, and Parmesan cheese. Add potato wedges and toss to coat.
  • Spread wedges evenly on a baking sheet and bake for 35-40 minutes or until the edges have become brown and crispy, checking every 10 minutes for desired tenderness.

Herb Chicken Directions:

  • In a large mixing bowl, combine 1 tbsp olive oil, minced garlic, and herbs. Add chicken thighs and toss to coat. Set aside and let marinade for at least 30 minutes.
  • Heat a large pan on medium-high heat. Add butter, and when the butter has melted and begun to sizzle, add chicken thighs.
  • Cook thighs for 5-7 minutes or until the underside has begun to brown and crisp, and flip. Cook for an additional 5-7 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 165F.
