T’is the season of lots of funky squash! We had never seen Carnival Squash before, but it caught our eye as it sat next to the bin of Acorn Squash. It looked like a speckled cousin of the acorns next to it, and it was just too pretty to not buy! When we cut it, it was a lot like acorn squash, so we treated it like one, and it did not disappoint!
We served this with our Crispy Garlic Pork Cutlet and Roasted Brussels Sprouts, but it would also go nicely with Roasted Turkey!
