ROASTED DELICATA SQUASH
Thick rings of Roasted Delicata Squash will be an impressive side dish on your Thanksgiving table. There is a rich, delicious crust of caramelized goodness on every slice that tastes just amazing. Roasting the squash in a hot oven brings out the sugar in the flesh and caramelizes the slices. The firmer texture of the skin compliments the sweet, velvety texture of the squash.

SWEET BAKED DELICATA SQUASH
Delicata squash is one of the best winter squashes even though it is a fairly 'new' squash. The skin can be eaten and it is almost the best part of the squash. I was curious about the squash when I saw it at the farmer market and 'had to have it' and this is how I chose to make it. Kids and adults love it!
