Acorn Squash and Granny Smith Apple Soup

Wed, 31 Oct 2007 18:27:17 -0400

I got this recipe from about.com and it was written by Fiona Haynes. I'm adding this because this is a great recipe and tastes great, wonderful on a cool autumn night. "Acorn Squash has a slightly earthier taste than butternut squash, which complements the sweetness of the apple and mild spice of the curry powder. Enjoy this acorn squash and apple soup with some crusty whole-grain bread." -Fiona Haynes -- posted by melissa*

My brother and I have a game each holiday where he tries to figure out which dishes prepared for our Thanksgiving table are lowfat and which are "real food." Let's see if he gets this one right. LOL.

Gingered Butternut Squash Soup With Spicy Pecan Cream

Tue, 22 Jan 2008 01:56:53 -0500

Dean Fearing loves the holiday feel of butternut squash, especially when it's cooked with ginger, as it is for his smooth, gently sweet soup. He tops it with whipped cream flecked with chopped pecans for a number of reasons: "Usually holiday soups have a dollop of cream-adding pecans gives it a dollop of flavor. And crunch. I think everything should have a little bit of crunch to it. Plus, this is Texas, and pecans are in Texas." Recipe by Dean Fearing from Dean Fearing's Dallas Thanksgiving.

Classic Pumpkin Pie for Expats

Thu, 07 Feb 2008 18:52:23 -0500

Living abroad has it's ups and downs. Not being able to find ingredients for at-home favorites is a definite down. I adapted several recipes and made several pies, and found that in China, with the ingredients available, this recipe makes a Deeeelicious-No-Roll-Crusted-Humdinger of a pumpkin pie. You can find most of the ingredients in China. Pumpkin is Nan2guo3, and those are usually available in the markets, but don't be afraid to experiment with other similar squashes. The sweetened and condensed milk can usually be found in a bakery or supermarket. They dip their Chinese rolls in it as a dessert after dinner often. It is made by Nestle 鹰唛炼奶ying1ma4lian4nai3 or (as they have no equivalent to what we would call cream, if u ask for cream 99% of the time they show you to this, 奶油 nai3you3。 The spices are what is tricky. See if you can have people mail u the tiny McCormick packets or try your fare at a big supermarket in a capital city. Happy Baking! -- posted by Anna Bananana

Fiery Ginger Pumpkin Tomato Soup

This was the weekly recipe from Lakewinds Whole Food Co-op in Minnetonka, Minnesota in (I think) 1999. I'm guessing on the cooking time as I don't have it written down. This isn't actually vegan unless you omit or replace the honey (brown rice syrup might be nice), but I can't figure out how to go back and edit the categories. Sorry about that. -- posted by mliss29

Remember, when using a countertop blender to puree, whir hot vegetables in batches, filling the jar only halfway (unless you want to spend the night cleaning the ceiling).

Winter Squash Pie

Mon, 07 Apr 2008 14:33:13 -0400

Winter squash come in many sizes and shapes, but all have hard outer rinds that surround sweet, often orange flesh. Winter squash arrive late in the growing season and have a long storage life, so they've long been a staple in winter and spring when other vegetables are harder to come by. Pumpkin, acorn squash, Hubbard squash, buttercup and butternut squash are all examples of this wonderful vegetable. This recipe only uses one cup of squash, so it's a good way to recycle a little dab of leftover squash into something new and wonderful. From the New England chapter of the United States Regional Cookbook, Culinary Arts Institute of Chicago, 1947. -- posted by Molly53

Stuffed Pumpkin

Sat, 11 Oct 2008 02:05:12 -0400

I took this to work this week, and got rave reviews on it. People loved the fact that they were being served out of a pumpkin. Even though the recipe calls for a sugar pumpkin, I actually made a triple batch and filled a jack-o-lantern pumpkin for work because I needed something that would serve a lot of people. However, jack-o-lantern pumpkins are not very good for eating themselves so everybody just ate the filling, whereas you should actually scoop out part of the flesh of the sugar pumpkin with the stuffing. I originally got this recipe off of here, but went I started to review it, with my list of modifications, I realized that it had changed so much that it was a completely different recipe so I am posting my own version. Note: You can modify the spices to your tastes, and I use Smart Balance in place of butter. -- posted by MistyCat82

Pumpkin Squares With Dates and Pecans

Mon, 13 Oct 2008 00:48:57 -0400

Recipe is from Gourmet Magazine (Nov. 1990). If you don't like dates or pecans you can substitute for other nuts and dried fruit (eg. cranberries and walnuts). The original recipe calls for 1/4 c. more sugar which is too sweet for my taste. It's a great holiday recipe. -- posted by blucoat

Spicy Savory Pumpkin Soup

Wed, 30 Sep 2009 01:13:04 -0400

I made this one up on my own after I learned how to cook well enough. All kinds of beans can be used, black beans do very well as do pinto beans, but regular red or dark red kidney beans are my favorite with this particular soup. You can also substitute pumpkin puree for squash puree! I think the green onion goes perfect with the mix but a small can of green chiles works well too. This is a great soup to have in the fall. Yields about 4 medium-sized servings. -- posted by the80srule

Cinnamon-Swirl Pumpkin Rolls

Thu, 08 Oct 2009 10:38:10 -0400

This recipe is from King Arthur Flour and is a delicious fall twist on cinnamon buns. And, they are somewhat healthier because they contain some whole wheat flour (and a vegetable!). The dough is very easy to handle and rises up beautifully. These would also be good with a cream cheese icing. Dough requires a total of at least 2 1/2 hour rising time (if you use liquid milk instead of dry, you may require slightly longer rising time). You can make the dough the day before. Just let them rise for about 30 minutes, wrap them up, and refrigerate overnight. In the morning, let them rise a bit more and warm up, unwrap and then bake. -- posted by blucoat

Bed and Breakfast Spiced Pumpkin Scones With Honey Butter

Mon, 02 Nov 2009 12:04:21 -0500

Gorgeous spiced pumpkin scones with honey butter - what a treat for the tea-time table during autumn and winter. I have made these twice now and love the combination of the honey butter with the scones, although they are also delicious with plain unsalted butter. This recipe came from an Australian "Olive" magazine that was sent to me, apparently, Queensland is famous for its blue pumpkins where this recipe originates from - I added the spices as well as the honey butter! A wonderful recipe for the cooler months, but as it uses tinned or frozen pumpkin, these can be made all year around. If you don't want to serve these with the honey butter, just split them whilst warm and spread with normal butter or cream. Mixed spice is a British spice mixture, I have a recipe for this on RZ: Recipe #266688 -- posted by French Tart

Delightful personal cheesecakes! My daughter requested these from a Rachel Ray magazine for her girl scout troup on her birthday, BIG hit! Fairly easy to make, but everyone will marvel at your amazing baking talents... only you will know how simple they really were :) -- posted by spreadnjoy

Roasted Butternut Squash and Leek Soup

Fri, 13 Nov 2009 17:14:23 -0500

This is my adaptation of several squash recipes I've seen. This is a great recipe for a first course of dinner, lunch or snack. It can be prepared up to 2 days ahead of time (bring to work!). Reheat refrigerated soup before adding garnish. For vegan option, use Vegetable stock rather than chicken stock, substitute olive oil for the butter and omit the cream. Make sure to use a vegan wine as well. -- posted by Austin Vegas

Pumpkin Eggnog Custard Pie

Mon, 16 Nov 2009 01:36:53 -0500

This is a fantastically airy and well spiced pumpkin pie. This recipe was entered in the Martha Stewart Show's first annual pie baking contest in November of 2009. Even those who do not like pumpkin pie will love this! Baked in a gingersnap cookie crust and topped with cinnamon, vanilla meringue, this pie is sure to please! -- posted by CoreyMB

Baked Squash With Apples and Cranberries

The tart flavor of this cranberry-colored glaze perfectly balances the sweetness from any winter squash. If acorn squash is not your favorite, try butternut. -- posted by Annacia

Thanksgiving Pumpkin Blondies

Mon, 23 Nov 2009 14:15:40 -0500

From The Best 50 collection of cookbooks. This is straight out of the Brownies and Blondies edition. A little of this goes a LONG way! Not really a blondie by my standards, but it passes off as an interesting bar-type dessert. PLEASE NOTE: Because most people are not really used to tasting molasses, it may take a few bites to fall in love with this recipe. I did not like it at all when I first tried it. But, after giving it a second bite, I found I can't get enough of it. This seemed to happen with EVERYONE who tried it. So, please, before giving an unhappy review, try it again. If you find that the molasses is just too much to handle, try cutting the topping ingredients in half. It really does make a lot of topping as it is. I hope you enjoy this! -- posted by the_cookie_lady

Sweet and Savory Squash Stew

Mon, 23 Nov 2009 15:41:31 -0500

This recipe combines some of the most iconic tastes of fall--butternut and acorn squash, sweet potato, apple--in a sweet and savory pot of deliciousness. I recommend serving with a dollop of sour cream. And cornbread. All amounts for seasonings are estimates--I tend to season as I go and according to taste; I have a feeling these are underestimates. I will be sure to update the next time I make this with adjusted amounts. I used a smoked (pre-cooked) ham steak for this; I have also made it with other kinds of ham, with turkey sausage, and without meat altogether with positive results. -- posted by Tlharin

Susanne's Yams

Traditional Pumpkin Pie

Sat, 28 Nov 2009 17:44:21 -0500

This is the recipe my mom adapted to my dad's taste, since he loved pumpkin pie and she hates it. My family and I all love it, I make it several times a year, sometimes without a crust and then I eat it for breakfast. -- posted by CaliCook

Butternut Squash and Potatoes With Rosemary

Fri, 11 Dec 2009 12:15:17 -0500

From the Italian Slow Cooker by Michele Scicolone. It's wonderful to be able to use the slow cooker to make side dishes, especially on those occasions when the oven is engaged by the main event. You cannot go wrong with butternut squash, potatoes and rosemary. While this appears in an Italian cookbook, the ingreidets are very familiar to North Americans, as well. -- posted by duonyte

Roasted Acorn Squash With Wild Rice Stuffing

Fri, 11 Dec 2009 17:37:10 -0500

Acorn squash is a satisfying side when roasted and topped with a pat of butter and a drizzle of maple syrup, but filled with a hearty stuffing of wild rice, pecans, and cranberries, its a meal in itself. Loaded with comforting flavors, this dish brings fall home, but it can be made any time of year. The wild rice mixture can be made up to 2 days ahead; keep it refrigerated in an airtight container. You can make the stuffing up to 6 hours ahead; keep it covered in the refrigerator. extracted from Chow.com, haven't tried this yet but posted here for safekeeping -- posted by endeavour

Pumpkin Pie

Mon, 21 Dec 2009 01:49:10 -0500

This pie is delicious, and no one will EVER miss the eggs. You can use this filling with your favorite home made pie crust, or store bought. I made this for Thanksgiving 2009 using this crust: Recipe #404587 Because I didn't have clove, I used 1/2 tsp cinnamon PLUS from Pampered Chef, which has a mix of cinnamon, nutmeg and clove. I also used candied pecans for the top. From: Joy of Vegan Baking -- posted by Kozmic Blues
