Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).

  2. Combine butternut squash, sweet potatoes, olive oil, salt, and pepper in a storage container. Cover with lid and shake well until fully coated. Place vegetables onto a baking sheet.

  3. Bake in the preheated oven until vegetables are easily pierced with a fork, about 45 minutes.

  4. Place chicken sausage in a large skillet and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until evenly browned, about 10 minutes. Reduce heat to medium-low, add eggs, spinach, and red pepper flakes. Cook and stir until eggs are set, about 5 minutes. Mix in black beans, cook until heated through, about 1 minute. Add goat cheese.

  5. Fill pita breads with scrambled eggs and baked vegetables.

Recipe Note

Here's a great use for leftover roasted root vegetables. The ingredients are flexible;onion, mushroom, tomato, cilantro, and avocado slices also work well. Good with a hot sauce like Cholula® and polenta or grits.
