A Cooking Show with Rachel O – This Week’s Feast is ready for your viewing pleasure! I’ve made up a “Fancy Pizza” using some of the contents of this week’s box.
| Fancy Pizza |
- 1 pizza crust
- 1 C thinly sliced roasted butternut squash
- 3 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled
- 1 small onion, halved and sliced
- 1 t red pepper flakes (opt.)
- Bari Organic Extra Virgin Olive Oil
- 1 C parmesan cheese, thin slices (would also be good with mozarella or gruyere cheese)
- salt (opt.)
- flour, for rolling out dough
- Pre-heat oven to 475F. Cook bacon and drain on a plate with a paper towel.
- Slice squash and onion. Roast squash with a little olive oil and salt, for 10 minutes (until slightly browned and soft inside, crispy outside).
- Roll out pizza dough on lightly floured pizza stone or pan. Top with a tiny bit of olive oil, salt (opt.) and red pepper flakes (can also bake plain, which is great too). Bake for 5 minutes.
- Top crust with a tiny bit more olive oil, parmesan cheese, squash, onion, bacon, and parmesan cheese. Bake for 6-8 minutes.
- Serve and enjoy!!
Prep time doesn’t include making the pizza dough (which can be made ahead of time and frozen).
Third time I made this, I omitted the red pepper flakes and onions, and added mozarella. It was best this way!
Great green salad: lettuce, sliced pear (or apple), nuts (walnuts or almonds). Dressing: whisk together some balsamic vinegar with olive oil and honey.

Another one that is going on the rotation for this week! I personally love butternut squash, but it can be challenging to find ways my whole family will enjoy it as well. I think pizza with bacon will be a winner!
Thanks again for all your hard work and for sharing part of who you are with others. Keep up the great work!!
Thanks, Christy!! It’s been so fun, and I’m glad you’re enjoying it!
Have you tried any of the add-ons from AHO yet? I’ve heard that the bacon is amazing, but have not yet tried it.
Yesterday’s post has a bunch of ideas for other things to do with Butternut Squash too!

I have tried the AHO bacon and it is amazing….and normally I am so so with bacon but that is some good stuff. Making your pizza right now. With AHO bacon and butternut squash.
Bethany – I can’t wait to try it!! Hope you enjoyed the pizza!!
Loved the pizza!! Loved it so much that we made it three weeks in a row. We make home made pizza almost every Friday night with our kids…little family tradition. Kids favorite night of the week. Was fun to use the squash as we always like toppings that are in season.
Yay! Bethany, that makes me so happy to hear!! We have Pizza Fridays at our house too. It’s the best! Thanks for sharing!
