Pair garlic-scented pork with mashed acorn squash -- the sweetness enhances the pork. Add a mixed green salad alongside, if you like.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Lightly oil a rimmed baking sheet; set aside. Finely chop garlic; sprinkle with coarse salt. Holding a chef?s knife almost parallel to a cutting board, repeatedly smear garlic with blade until a paste forms.
- Place pork in center of prepared baking sheet. Rub all over with oil and garlic paste, and season with salt and pepper. Arrange squash halves, cut side down, around pork.
- Roast pork until an instant-read thermometer registers 145 degrees when inserted in the thickest part, 35 to 40 minutes. Transfer to a cutting board, and tent with aluminum foil; let rest 10 minutes.
- Meanwhile, holding hot squash with a clean kitchen towel, scrape out flesh into a medium bowl. Add sour cream and brown sugar; season with salt and pepper, and mash with a fork to combine. Thinly slice pork, and serve with mashed squash, sprinkled with brown sugar.
