I love squah made any way: soups, stews, roasted, grilled...and waht I love the most is that they are healthy and tasty. I hope you will try this 'a little bit special' roasted acorn squash with a hint of sweet and a bite of acid. Read more It is great alongside just about any hearty main dish. Try it with roast turkey or Pear Pork. from the good folks at CHOW with a gorgeous picture by Max La Rivière-Hedrick See less
