A scrumptious and simple pumpkin recipe that is the perfect side dish. Sweet, savory and a little spicy, the pumpkin is cooked in fragrant cinnamon and chili for a truly delightful experience. Pair it up with buttered creamed corn for the perfect match!

1 teaspoon olive oil
2 cups pumpkin or butternut squash diced into large pieces
1 cinnamon stick
1/4 - 1/2 teaspoon chili powder

Heat oil in a pot. Add onions and cook till translucent. Add cinnamon stick and cook for 1 more minute. Add squash and hot water till reaches half way up the squash.
