Culinary Uses

  1. Roasting: Halve the squash, remove seeds, and roast with a drizzle of olive oil and your favorite seasonings. The natural sugars caramelize beautifully.
  2. Soups: Puree roasted honeynut squash for a velvety soup base. Enhance with coconut milk for a creamy texture or add warming spices like ginger and cinnamon.
  3. Stuffed Squash: Fill halved and roasted honeynut squashes with a savory mixture of quinoa, dried cranberries, and pecans for a festive side dish or vegetarian main course.
  4. Salads: Dice and roast the squash, then toss into autumn salads with mixed greens, goat cheese, and a maple vinaigrette.
  5. Pasta Dishes: Cube and roast the squash, then toss with pasta, sage, and parmesan for a comforting fall meal.
  6. Desserts: Utilize the squash’s natural sweetness in pies, custards, or quick breads as a healthier alternative to pumpkin.
  7. Risotto: Dice and add to risotto for a creamy, colorful dish packed with fall flavors.
  8. Breakfast: Mash roasted honeynut squash and use as a spread on toast, topped with a sprinkle of cinnamon and chopped nuts.
