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.

The b&b hosts and various guided events we participated in all treated us wonderfully and were clear that Emilie had visited & vetted each property (and even rooms!) The personal tour book we …

When we received our packet, I was amazed with all the info. Emilie put into it for our trip. We needed more time in the day for places on our daily agenda that we did not get a chance to visit. We will just have to return and finish them on the next trip to the Loire. Flo and Phil's, Les Bournais was a charming place with wonderful accommodations …

This was the best trip to France we have ever been on! It was the second trip that Emilie and Laura at France Just for You set up for us. The first was a trip around Provence, which we loved so much that we asked them to set up our second trip to the Loire Valley, Normandy, and Paris. Both trips were tailored to our interests - food, wine, art …

Laura and Emilie started working with us to develop a trip in July of 2020, but the trip had to be postponed because of COVID. Nonetheless they kept everything in place and made some modifications so that the trip could take place this October and November. They were always responsive and helpful with our questions and concerns. All of the …

We had a wonderful experience with Laura and Emilie- they were very responsive to all of our questions and needs and helped us plan a fabulous trip! While we were there, they were also very helpful when we needed assistance with reservations or had questions about processes during COVID.
