Quote of the Day

I appreciate the misunderstanding I have had with Nature over my perennial border. I think it is a flower garden -- she thinks it is a meadow lacking grass, and tries to correct the error. ~ Sara Stein, My Weeds, 1988

Caramelized Butternut Squash

We have spent the day with My Gift's parents, eating yummy food that I did not prepare, which is always my favorite sort.

This recipe is from The Barefoot Contessa cookbook:

Caramelized Butternut Squash

Heat oven to 400.

Trim off the ends and cut into 1 1/2 inch cubes:
2 butternut squash

Melt together:
6 Tb unsalted butter
1/4 C light brown sugar
1 1/2 t kosher salt
1/2 t freshly ground black pepper

Combine with squash cubes and spread onto baking sheet.

40 to 55 minutes.


Very yummmy. Did I mention that I ate too much? I probably will never need to eat again.
