Notes

You can make your squash, onions, and even your farro ahead of time so this recipe will come together much quicker for a weeknight meal.

You can even skip the caramelized onion step and use french fried onions 🙂

To roast your pine nuts, heat over to 325 degrees. Place pine nuts on cookie sheet and roast for 3-5 minutes, keeping a close eye on them and stirring them halfway through.

You can definitely tweak this recipe to your taste as well. Sun-dried tomatoes and roasted red peppers would be amazing in it, and if you don’t have balsamic glaze, any sort of balsamic vinegar would work.

I used Parmesan cheese, but goat cheese would also be a delicious topping! And almost any grain could replace the farro, just use what you love!
