Have you ever been to ABC Kitchen? If not, you MUST go and you must try “The Squash Toast”.
Or, just make yourself in the kitchen with this recipe below! I made it last weekend for brunch and it was so amazing, I really wish I made more! See my friends recaps here from brunch: Lemonstripes.com and Coralsandcognacs.com.
P.S. I healthified Jean-Georges’ recipe a tad: cut down some of the ingredients and switched up the type of squash.
