This is a delicious and very easy recipe for two people to share.

Ingredients:



- a small red kuri squash

- 5 to 7 table spoons of sour cream

- bacon strips (200 gramms)

- some grated cheese

 

Preparation :

1. Cut the bottom of the squash so it remains stable in the serving dish. Then cut the top of the squash and take out the seeds

2. Fill it with the bacon strips and the sour cream up to the top. Add some pepper and put back the top of the squash.

3. Cook it in the oven for an hour at 200°C (about 400°F)

4. Take out the top of the squash and add the grated cheese. Put under the grill until it is melted.

5. Serve with 2 spoons in the squash. A side salad brings some freshness.You can accompany this dish with a strong red wine such as a South American wine or a Bordeaux. Good appetite !

It is the squash season, the château du Rivau in the Loire Valley makes amazing garden decoration with pumpinks.

My husband and I prefer to travel independently not on tours but I am getting tired of doing all of the planning. Emilie did an excellent job of planning the trip. I gave input on the type of hotels and the places that we wanted to see and she took care of the details. The hotels that she picked were outstanding. All but one day we followed her …

The planning and coordination of our holiday was quite awesome and far exceeded all of our expectations and indeed our imagination. The 300 odd page personalised guide book with maps, times and distances, restaurants on route and at our destinations, recommended places to visit on route and the accomodation itself and hosts at each location were …

We had already gone to France twice in the past, but thanks to Emily and Guilaume we rediscovered this fabulous country in a whole new way. We are …
