Directions: Pre heat oven to 375°F.

Step 1: Prepare any of the squash (see suggested portions). Place flesh side up on covered baking sheet. Liberally spray with olive oil. Sprinkle a bit of garlic salt and a small sprinkle of cinnamon onto each half. Place in pre heated oven and roast for about 45 min., or until tender when pierced with a fork.
Step 2: Meanwhile, using a large skillet, or pot, add EVOO and heat over med-high. When hot, add onion, celery, carrot, red pepper flakes, fennel seeds and 1/2 tsp. salt. Sauté until veggies are tender, about 5 – 7 min.
Step 3: Add meat, 1/2 tsp. salt and black pepper. Brown meat, breaking up as you go; about 5 min. Mix in tomato paste. Add balsamic; scrape bottom to lift and incorporate any browned bits. Cook, uncovered for about 3 min. then add tomatoes, remaining 1/4 tsp. salt and cinnamon. Simmer, uncovered for 15 – 20 min. Garnish with Flat Leaf Parsley if desired.
