Apricot-Ginger Acorn Squash image

Sweet and savory flavors come together in this dish that will make a squash lover out of anyone. It's a treat-but has hardly any butter, and low sodium. For less sugar, we like to use all-fruit apricot preserves. -Trisha Kruse, Eagle, Idaho

This recipe is a great starting point, but I would make a few changes to suit my own taste. I would add some more ginger to the glaze and roast the squash for a few extra minutes.

The squash was a bit undercooked for my liking. I would roast it for a few extra minutes next time.
