Decorative Gourd Seasonal Dish

IT'S DECORATIVE GOURD SEASON, MFKRS!!!

Ingredients:

1 acorn squash

Olive oil (for brushing)

2 tbsp butter

Nutmeg

Dried Sage

Maple Sizzurp (so New England!)

Salt

Preheat the oven to 400F. Halve and gut the squash (saving the seeds for the Maple 5-spice Squash Seeds recipe). Lay each half cavity-side-up on a baking sheet. Brush each squash half with some olive oil (so the spices stick). Sprinkle on the nutmeg. Pour a healthy amount of maple sizzurp in the cavity of each squash. Add one tbsp hunk of butter into each cavity. Crumble some dried sage into the cavity and salt to taste. Roast for 45-60 minutes (until tender)
