Butternut Squash

We have these beautiful butternut squash in the garden and I just don't know what to do with them. Any ideas? Remember, I am a simple cook.

Butternut Squash soup, for sure! Although, I love the recipe for the roasted squash in the first comment-- might have to try that one myself.

Brian cuts them in half length wise, scoops out the seeds, puts a large spoon of brown sugar and butter in the cavity and bakes them on a cookie sheet until soft (about an hour). Everyone wants the part around the cavity but if they end up with a neck part we let them add extra brown sugar and butter.

It's easy and pretty tasty :-)

I remembered another one:
Make your favorite potato soup recipe but substitute squash for half of the potatoes. The creamy cheesy taste goes great with butternut squash.
