There is one item I never leave out of a fancy meal, squash. Sadly, I am the only person in my household that LOVES squash. There are a lot of squash recipes I try, but this is one of my favorite. The children will also eat it when I do a baked acorn squash. Check out Cooking Mommy’s Baked Acorn Squash recipe now!
