Roasted Squash With Pancetta and Brussels Sprouts - 15g Carbs, 3g Fiber, 3g Sugar
From: The Washington Post, October 16, 2013 - From: Nourish columnist Stephanie Witt Sedgwick.
This is a side dish I could eat for dinner on its own: a jumble of roasted butternut squash, crisped bits of pancetta, slightly bitter shreds of Brussels sprouts and slivers of garlic. It can be tossed into pasta for a main course, too, but it pairs well with roast chicken, pork or salmon.
Feel free to take advantage of the pre-cut squash now available in most supermarkets. Diced pancetta (Italian bacon) is available prepackaged in most supermarkets.

1 1/4 pounds peeled, seeded butternut squash, cut into 3/4-to-1–inch cubes (about 4 cups)
2 oz diced pancetta
1 Tbsp olive oil
Kosher salt
Freshly ground black pepper

8 oz Brussels sprouts, trimmed and cut in half, then thinly sliced
2 large cloves garlic, thinly sliced, each slice cut into thin strips (slivered)
1 Tbsp olive oil

Line two large rimmed baking sheets with aluminum foil. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.
For the squash: Combine the squash cubes, pancetta and oil on one of the baking sheets; toss to combine and coat evenly. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Spread in a single layer. Bake for 30 to 40 minutes, turning the squash once after 20 minutes, until the squash is tender and starting to brown.

Gently toss together the contents of the two baking sheets in a large serving bowl. Serve warm or at room temperature.
