Butternut Squash and Sweet Potato Salad


I buy the already diced butternut squash and sweet potatoes, but if you can't find these you can use a whole sweet potato cut up into small squares and likewise with the butternut.

1. Coat about 1 c. of sweet potatoes and 1 c. of butternut squash (both diced into squares) with olive oil spray (0 calories). Place on a baking sheet covered with aluminum foil.
2. Sprinkle with cinnamon sugar and plain cinnamon.
3. Bake on 400 degrees for 23 minutes or until a fork can be inserted with no resistance.
4. Mix in with a cup or  two of spinach leaves.
5. Add diced honey roasted almonds, some craisins, and a a little grilled chicken that can be cooked on a    George Forman grill.
6. Top with goat cheese and balsalmic vinagerette

Voila! Healthy yet so good.
