I’ve seen recipes for pizza using butternut squash but I had a different idea. An Indian style type of pizza. In my mind anyway. I love Naan. I love squash. I love curry. This would make a great appetizer pizza!
Curried Butternut Squash Naan Pizza
from HoneyB’s Kitchen
1 small butternut squash, diced
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
2 tablespoons Made with Love Garden Curry Spice Blend
2 naan bread (I buy mine at Super Wal-mart. Haven’t perfected making it myself yet)
1 medium onion, sliced thin
1/2 tablespoon butter
1 teaspoon brown sugar
pinch (or 2) of cayenne pepper
1/2 cup Havarti Cheese, shredded or broken off into pieces (not super easy to shred as it is a softer cheese)
Mix squash oil and curry spice blend and roast at 400 degrees until tender. While squash is roasting, caramelize onions with butter. Add sugar and spice at end of their cooking.
Sprinkle on Naan bread a small amount of cheese. Top with onions, squash and remaining cheese. Bake 12 minutes (400 degree oven) or until cheese is melted and crust starts to brown. slightly.

As soon as I saw this come up on Facebook I had to zoom over! Talk about a lot of my favorite flavors all in one spot!
Oh my…what a great combination of flavors. I love heat with butternut squash too.
This looks so tasty and sounds great!
This sounds like a dish I would love: butternut squash and naan! Yum!!
I just made and blogged about a Pumpkin Curry with Naan bread the other day that was delicious, although not very spicy… Next time I'll add a bit more spice to it!
This is a fabulous idea for a pizza! I've put butternut squash on a pizza before but with pesto. I really like the sound of it with the curry.
Guess a galette doesn't have to just be sweet! Looks really good and full of spice.
This is a tasty clever pizza, great idea! Thanks for the stumble today!
how delicious does that picture look?!
This looks absolutely tasty & lovely!
That first photo is a knock out!!! You have a GREAT idea here. I am so stuck with traditional pizza flavors I never would have thought of this, but I love it.
this is one delicious looking pizza! I'm loving the caramelized onions and Havarti cheese!
What a great idea! I love squash with heat, too. Yum! (I usually toss chili flakes into my mashed squash…so good!)
Hope you and Grumpy have a wonderful Thanksgiving!

This is unique Shelby and it uses two of my favouries butternut squash and dough of any kind:D Hugs
Hmmmm, sounds delicious. I made a butternut squash pizza, but I like the sounds of this better.
This does sound so very very good. I'm really getting into squash this season and what a delicious way to kick it up.
This pizza looks delicious, Shelby! I've never thought to combine those flavors for a pizza before, so I can't wait to try this recipe out!
Also, a little tip for grating softer cheeses — put the cheese in the freezer for 5-10 minutes before you go and grate. Having the cheese super cold will make grating a lot easier. 🙂
Now, that is one interesting pizza!! Bet it was good, but you deserve the most original recipe of the year award for this one!
this is right up my alley Shel. hubby won't touch this, but man i can't get enough of it.
What a great pizza! The combination of squash, curry and cheese must be delicious. I add myself to Michelle, I can't wait to try it!
I love pizza, this is such a great idea and new to me! Saving this idea!
I love butternut and this is a great way to serve it. Your slices are perfect!
