Thumb_8403_Butternut Squash And Banana Puree With Whiskey And Pecans

We like to use Jameson or Tullamore Dew and then pour a little thimble for good health. Truthfully, any good whiskey or bourbon will do. Do make sure though that the banana is ripe. An unripe banana will dilute the rich flavor of the dish.

Thumb_8375_Butternut Squash Risotto With Pancetta, Pecorino And Marjoram

This is a great take on a classic autumn dish. Pancetta adds meaty richness, marjoram adds woodsy warmth, and pecorino adds a salty tang. Rosemary and oregano would both work well in place of the marjoram.

Thumb_8382_Butternut Squash Tempura With Soy-Lime Dipping Sauce

We like the zip of this tempura, which complements the sweetness of the squash. This is one of our favorite dipping sauces, but you might also mix it up and try an Italian green sauce or a salsa verde.

Thumb_8410_Curried Butternut Squash Soup

There's a tendency to add sweet spices to the already sweet butternut squash soup. We prefer the earthy zest of curry powder. This simple twist on a classic could also work as a broth base for a more elaborate soup.

Emboldened by his recent foray into recipe-less gnocchi, Brys decided to try his hand at homemade whole wheat ravioli. Read more about how he developed this recipe on the Cookthink blog.

Thumb_10154_Fig, Pancetta And Butternut Squash Risotto

One of our favorite restaurants, Birmingham's Highland's Bar & Grill, makes a butternut squash and fig risotto that is almost dessert-ish. Using that as a jumping-off point, we added the salty pancetta and roasted the butternut squash for more depth.

Thumb_13898_Roasted Delicata Squash With Thyme

Roasted squash is nearly impossible to mess up. Your only danger, I think, is undercooking it. Any winter squash will work, but I love delicata squash because they’re pretty, delicious, and not a total pain to cut open. Read more about this recipe at VeganYumYum.

Thumb_17409_Spicy Roasted Winter Squash With Brown Sugar

Butternut, red kuri, acorn and hubbard squashes are all about the same size, and interchangeable in this recipe. Spaghetti and and butternut squash are larger, so you might only need one of those for 4-6 servings.

Naturally rich and sweet, winter squash purée made in the oven or microwave lends an autumnal flair to the holiday table. It can be enriched with brown sugar, maple syrup or honey for extra sweetness. Read more about this recipe at The Washington Post.
