Quick Meal IdeasThe Wonders of Winter Squash
> Acorn
Bake this mild, sweet variety with brown sugar, honey and butter or maple syrup – delicious!
> Spaghetti
True to its name, this mild-tasting specimen turns into spaghetti-like strands when cooked.
> Buttercup
This nutty, sweet variety is good baked with butter and sugar, and also in pies.
> Butternut
Mild-tasting and a little less sweet than acorn, butternut squash holds its shape well after it’s cooked, so it’s great diced or sliced in recipes.
> Delicata
This sweet, creamy variety is good baked or steamed — you can even eat the skin.
> Turban
Nutty in flavor and firm in texture, turban squash is best used whole as a squash soup tureen.
