The savory and sweet tastes of fall all in one dish. This is an easy side dish option for the weekday. I promise you will eat the whole pan.
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
Halve and core the pear. Cut each half into 8 wedges and put them in a large bowl. Cube the squash and cut the onion into wedges so that both are as thick as the pear wedges and add them to the pears. On the stovetop, melt butter; add sage, thyme and mustard seeds. Cook until it begins to bubble, about 1 to 2 minutes. Gently combine with squash, onion and pears. Season with salt and pepper, mix in the dried cranberries, and toss again. Pour into a roasting pan.
Bake until pear, squash, and onions are tender and caramelized, about 45 to 50 minutes. Scatter the cheese over top and bake until melted, about 5 minutes more.
Serve immediately.

I made this for Thanksgiving and it was so beautiful and delicious! This dish went very quickly and the tiny bit remaining made good leftovers the next day. It was just the replacement I was looking for to please my marshmallow/sweet potato casserole loving in-laws (which I can’t stand!)

This looks amazing, I’m going to plan a meal just make this! Is dry mustard similar to whole mustard seed? Any chance it can be used in place of the whole seeds?
