I am seeing more butternut squashes out lately!


Yay, it's just about squash season. I do have a love for butternut squash. I recently discovered this a few years past and I have lots of recipes to try. I just wish my family loved it as much as I do. I am going to perfect my butternut squash, bacon and rosemary stuffing for Thanksgiving this year. I made it last year, but it little a little something. If you never have tried it here is a simple side dish:

Cut the butternut squash into cubes and roast it for 40 minutes or so until it is golden and soft. In a skillet cut up 4 slices of bacon and brown and drain. Add the butternut squash to the pan with the bacon and some fresh rosemary, season with salt and pepper. I love it so much I turned it into a stuffing. You can also add cream and cheese and fold into pasta and bake...mouth drooling!
