Autumn Morning Pita Pockets
  1. 1

    Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).

  2. 2

    Combine the butternut squash, sweet potatoes, olive oil, salt, and pepper in a storage container. Cover with a lid and shake well until everything is fully coated. Spread the vegetables on a baking sheet.

  3. 3

    Bake in the preheated oven until the vegetables are easily pierced with a fork, about 45 minutes.

  4. 4

    Place the chicken sausage in a large skillet and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until evenly browned, about 10 minutes. Reduce the heat to medium-low; add the eggs, spinach, and red pepper flakes. Cook and stir until the eggs are set, about 5 minutes. Stir in the black beans; cook until heated through, about 1 minute. Add the goat cheese.

  5. 5

    Fill the pita breads with the scrambled eggs and baked vegetables.
