    Just bought butternut squash and made it the other night. I bought it cubed. Then spread it on to a baking stone and drizzled garlic infused canola oil and added seasoning. You can use a baking pan or sheet and any oil you prefer. I baked it in the oven for 40 minutes mixing it once. So delicious that I went out and bought more. The convenience of it being already cut and cube was worth the drive.

    shredded then cooked like hashbrowns - can make them savory or sweet... or even spicy.

    soften then add salsa.

    puree it, then use in recipes that call for pumpkin.

    Take the half brush it with some olive oil and a little salt pepper. Cook cut side down in a 425 degree oven for about 35 mins.

    In the meantime saute 1/2 large onion or 1 small onion, with one portabella mushroom, with some fresh sage, 2 garlic cloves, and red pepper flakes (I use a lot because I like it spicy but just do to taste) Once onions are translucent set aside.

    When the squash is done, flip it over and fill the hole and along the squash with the mushroom mix and cook for another 10 mins.

    It is delicious, the spiciness of the mushrooms and the sweetness of the squash is yummy!

    This! I've always made it sweet with sugar/nuts/cinnamon, but made a savory one last week. totally different and delicious!

    I love "Cook Illustrated" squash soup. They do not discard the seeds but start with them! The curry variation topped with Cilantro and lime juice added to yogurt....YUMMY! Let me know if you have trouble when you Google it.

    Roasted Butternut squash (roast with Olive Oil, Salt, Pepper, Onion Powder, Garlic Powder and Cumin in 1/2 inch cubes)

    Serve with any sweetened nuts (candied walnuts or pecans or almonds) and any salty crumbly cheese, like feta.

    YUM!

    LOL Just searched google for this myself five minutes ago.

    I'm making a lamb stew and decided to just chop and peel it into 1/2 inch chunks and throw it in the stew...

    Will have to try some of these great recipes soon!
