I tried this recipe for acorn squash from The Pioneer Woman as a side with our turkey leftovers. It tasted like candy! We loved it, although in this pregnancy the texture of cooked squash wasn't working for me by bite 4, me so he happily are all of it!

My hubby grew up HATING squash because of the way it was prepared.. I made this dish for him once and now he LOVES squash! I make this VERY often. When fresh squash is out of season, I prepare my frozen squash with the same ingredients! YUM!
