I was actually going to try a couple of recipes and include them all in one Pin It and Do It Post, but I need a little help. Before I talk about my Baked Acorn Squash (which was delicious!) I have to beg for your likes and repins of my Dream Theme Party Board. I’m a finalist in the contest and your votes count. “Like or Repin your favorite party!” The winners will be announced on December 5th and who wins is based on “your votes and the judges.”
My Dream Party Board – It’s an Italian birthday party.
On to my Pin It and Do It post. I made Baked Acorn Squash last night. Acorn Squash is one of those things you always see in the grocery stores in fall and to be honest, this year is the first year I’ve actually tried cooking it. Turns out I love it – at least with brown sugar and syrup. Of course, I do like pretty much anything with brown sugar.
It was really easy to make, too. The hardest part was cutting the darn thing in half. After that, a little butter, some brown sugar, a little maple syrup and let it bake. YUM!
This is my second completed project for Trish’s holiday 2012 edition of Pin It and Do It.
Squash looks yummy!!
I have re-pinned and re-pinned! Good Luck1
Thanks!
I looked at your boards but I was not sure what to do with them so I just followed…
I love simple squash recipes…I read an article that said to bake them whole for a while…the squash will then soften and you can cut them without losing fingers!
Thanks!!
That’s a good idea. But then they’d be hot, hmmm.
I’ve always been too scared of acorn squash to try it but it does sound so easy! Last year was my first year for butternut squash (prepping myself) and I can’t wait to try more of it this fall.
Italian Birthday party? fun!!!
Like I said, this is the first year I’ve tried.
Thanks for the repin.
Will do
Thanks!!
I think I “liked” the right thing – if not, let me know.
Perfect! I appreciate it.
Never heard of baked acorn squash but it looks yummy. Good luck!!!!
Thanks. I’ve got my fingers crossed.
Congratulations! I hope I ‘liked’ the right thing.
Baked acorn squash is a favorite around here. I make it the same way.
Thanks for the like. I wish my daughter would eat the acorn squash too, but she says it’s too sweet. Had to fix her some green beans instead.
You’d get my vote but sadly this isn’t one of the sites I frequent.
A lot of people don’t.
Just an update. I’m in the final ten, but they haven’t announced the winner yet.
