Good Acorn Squash Recipe for Christmas?

post #1 of 13
Thread Starter 

Hi Everyone,

 

I've been assigned Acorn Squash as my ingredient to bring a dish for to our Christmas dinner.  I have made it in the past (Earth Balance, cinnamon, nutmeg, brown sugar), but I'm just wondering if anyone has one that would be good for a mixed vegan/vegetarian/carnivore crowd.  I have 11 adults and three kids (ages 5, 3 and 1) to cook for.

 

TIA!

I love it cut into thick wedges, tossed with olive oil, cumin, brown sugar and S&P. Roast at high heat until tender and sides are caramelized and golden brown.

YUM HollyBearsMom!  The cumin sounds like it would be great with squash!

OOps! The period at the end of the sentence was getting added to the link and causing a problem. I've edited my PP, but am adding the link here too, just in case others look here:

Thank you soooooooo much HappyHappyMommy!  Have you tried this recipe before?  It looks fantastic!  I think I may try this recipe and then just roast some with spices and Earth Balance for those who like it more "plain"....

Thank you!  I'm looking forward to trying it out along with the other suggested recipes!  I bought a TON of Acorn Squash so I can make a couple different dishes!
