Autumn is the perfect time for apple picking, leaf gathering and at the end of a long day of outdoor activities, a warm meal cooked with harvest vegetables like fall squash.
These fall squash recipes cover every meal from breakfast to dinner and even dessert. They include typical fall squash creations, like butternut squash soup and zucchini bread, but they also offer some completely original inventions. In an unconventional mac 'n cheese recipe, entire acorn squash halves are stuffed with cheese, pasta and Panko bread crumbs. It's a wonderfully hearty, filling meal that's both indulgent and healthy and is sure to be a hit with everyone in the family.
There's even an example of a fall squash cocktail, incorporating pureed pumpkin, maple syrup, bitters, lemon and rum. There's no better way to warm up on a chilly autumn night!
