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.

We could not be happier. When we first received the guide book and brochures, we thought we would not need them, but they were invaluable! Our first stay with Florence and Phil was especially memorable but really we cannot think of a highlight because it was all wonderful. We will certainly recommend your company to anyone we know travelling to …

We are preparing to do our second trip with Emilie to the Loire Valley, October 2018. Our first trip was to the region of Provence which was perfectly guided and gave us a most memorable experience. I highly recommend Emilie’s ability to put together a fabulous and memorable France just for you holiday.

Emilie was a great help in planning our trip and the accommodations and recommendations were excellent and well thought out. Unless you speak French and know the countryside, this is the best company for you to use to have a superb vacation and I would use them again anytime. They give you options so you can do what you like, but help with the …

Staying in B&B’s is a great way to see the country and meet the people who live there in their normal environment. And, “France Just for You” provides an excellent way to have this experience. Emilie’s knowledge and detailed planning made the trip exciting and enjoyable! We will definitely seek her out for our next trip to France.
