Delicata Squash Spring Rolls with Spinach

Delicata Squash Spring Rolls with Spinach
As you read the title of this recipe, you might be thinking to yourself that the two main items, squash and spring rolls, don’t scream fast. Squash takes time to prepare and the wrapping of the spring rolls can be tedious. However, using delicata squash (no-peel, quick cooking) and a small batch of spring rolls means this meal can be ready in under 30 minutes. Read more and see the recipe.

Between M and I, we have very few repetitious patterns. On any given day, we fly by the seat of our pants. I think part of this is because neither of us have set times to be some place during the day, we work until we feel like we can wrap up the day, and now with Mack, no day ever looks the same. However, there is one thing we can both agree on (and I think Mack will love when he gets older), each week we have a pizza night. For us, pizza making is a communal activity- it’s such a great way to catch up from our days and spend time together.

Since Mack was born, M and I talk a lot about where we see ourselves settling down for the long haul. We’ve made it a goal to hopefully decide by the time Mack is in first grade, which gives us some time. I’ve always had my heart set on Colorado. The Rockies have always felt like my mountains, it feels like home. It sounds funny to say, I love the Sierras, but they don’t have the same feel. Before recently, I’ve always felt like Northern California is another stop on our journey and while that very well may be true, it’s starting to feel more and more like home. There’s a solid community here and I’ve met some amazing people.

One of those people (Emma!) came to my house a couple weeks back just to hang out and cook. She brought produce and (very much needed) adult conversation. She hung out while I made these sweet potatoes and then we made tacos (because if given the option, I’ll always make tacos). These squash tacos are a slight variation on the ones we made that day because I’ve come to realize, delicata may me the best squash for tacos.
