ROASTED ACORN SQUASH AND HONEY

Roasted Acorn Squash and Honey image

Few side dishes are better on a cool fall evening than roasted acorn squash sweetened with just a little honey and made even mellower with nutmeg and fresh sage leaves. When I catch a whiff of it coming from the oven, I feel warm and comforted, and you will, too.
