Baked Acorn Squash

October 20th, 2014Tina8 Comments

I’ve been wracking my brain, trying to come up with a dinner recipe using this acorn squash. We got it at a local farm and it’s been sitting in the fridge looking to be eaten. In the end I decided to make it the way that my husband loved it as kid. He convinced me to post about it because despite it’s simplicity, it’s worth being showcased. I can never remember which squash is which. Let’s be realistic here, there are tons of different kinds and a lot of them look kind of similar. They are all squash after all. …

Have you ever wished for a delicious piece of quiche but didn’t want the calories of the crust?

Apple Cake

If you’re looking for a Fall time dessert to impress someone then this is it. Not only is it one of the best apple desserts that I’ve ever had, it’s also one of the prettiest! This cake is loaded with apples (duh, it’s called apple cake). I guess what I mean to say is that you definitely know that you’re eating apple cake because every bite is loaded with pieces of apple. Some apple cakes only sort of taste like apples or the spices that would go in an apple pie. This one is actually loaded with real live apples. Didn’t …
