Рецепт Roasted Acorn Squash Seeds
Honey Roasted Acorn Squash
I always considered myself a meat and potatoes type of gal. I think it must be my Irish roots. So when I came across the acorn squash at the grocery store, I was interested.
I wasn’t sure if I would like it. I figure I would make it and if I didn’t like it then someone else in the family would enjoy it.
Generally I love winter vegetables. Especially when they are roasted. Roasting these Acorn squash brings out the sweet flavor. It is funny that I never ate acorn squash until now. I am not sure why this is, I love squash. Sometimes I am like that with food I have not tried. If I like it, I will find lots of different recipe to enjoy it.
I am so glad that I made this. I ate both halves of this squash and was looking at a third when the hubster took it off my hands. I really liked it and it was so easy to make. It was even easier to eat. I just scooped out the flesh with a spoon and enjoyed it while watching TV.
Even if you don’t think you like Acorn Squash you have to try this recipe.
