Grated Parmesan and herbs  bring a load of flavor and a slight crust to acorn squash, offsetting it's soft and mild taste.  

Grab an acorn squash and let's get creative in the kitchen tonight -not to mention that this is loads healthier than frozen veggies swimming in butter!

Squash just screams fall to me so it is a staple in our house during the autumn (and winter) months .
