If you've picked up a winter squash from the food bank, you might be wondering: what do I do with this giant, heavy vegetable? Don't worry - they are much easier to cook than they look!

Here is a quick breakdown of two of our favorites 😃

Butternut Squash is tan, bell-shaped and smooth. It's sweet, creamy and almost tastes like a sweet potato. You can peel it, chop it into cubes, and roast it with a little oil, salt and pepper. It's also amazing blended into a creamy soup!

Acorn Squash is dark green, ribbed, and is shaped like a giant acorn. It has a mild, nutty but sweet taste. We think this one is really easy to cook. Just slice it in half, scoop out the seeds, and roast it face down on a cookie sheet for about 30 minutes. Then, flip it over, sprinkle with some cinnamon and brown sugar and bake for another 20 minutes.

Now that you know our favorites...what is your favorite squash to eat?
