2011 Cookfest One: Butternut Squash

I kicked off 2011 Cookfest One on Friday night, roasting the butternut squash. I used Once a Month Mom's method -- it worked perfectly fine, although with the convection oven it cooked maybe a little too long. I just mashed with a fork and portioned for storage. I yielded 4 cups and change from a regular-sized butternut squash.

Prepping the squash to cook.

Immediate plans for said squash:

- butternut squash risotto

- butternut cornbread muffins - Publix recipe that I don't see online yet

- harvest pancakes

Husband isn't sure how well he likes butternut squash, so we'll see if it becomes a staple.
