Harvest Cooking Tip: Roast Garlic Cloves Inside Squash  Here's a
quick, flavor-boosting tip we've been using with our acorn
squash lately. Pin it button We love baked acorn squash straight
from the rind, or mashed with a little cheese and milk. It's an
easy, easy side dish, lunch, dinner - or even breakfast, with
some cinnamon sugar. (See directions for roasting acorn squash
here: Sweet and Spicy Acorn Squash.)  Lately we've been dropping
one or two cloves of peeled garlic into the cavities of each
acorn half. The garlic slowly roasts, partially sheltered by the
squash so it doesn't burn, and mellowed by olive oil and salt.
Then when the squash is fully tender we mash the roasted garlic
into it and eat together. Easy and delicious!  How are you
