Does anybody have acorn
squash recipe ideas that don't involve sweets - brown sugar, maple syrup,
or honey?

Take the top off like a pumpkin, remove the seeds, fill it with chopped
apples (other fruits will work also) and add some cinniman. Bake for 45
minutes and eat. Or fry some meat and onions, stuff the squash with it and
bake for 45 minutes and eat . Or cut them up and add to stew and soups.
I also cut them in to slices, microwave them till tender, spray they with "I
cant believe its not butter". Or Slice and fry them and eat. Or add them
to casseroles.

Bake them with a bit of butter and season with black pepper. Add a dash of
cayenne and a topping of sauteed onions to dress them up.

Puree cooked, peeled squash with a small portion of sauteed onions.
Season with nutmeg and pepper (perhaps a dash of cayenne). Add
cream or milk (up to half the total, though I prefer much less). Serve
as a hot or cold soup.

Use pureed squash as an ingredient in muffins, pancakes or waffles,
replacing some of the liquid and oil and cutting out some of the sugar.
Season with cinnamon, cloves, and nutmeg. Chopped walnuts go well
with the squash. (A family favorite is multigrain pumpkin waffles,
served with homemade, reduced-sugar spiced apple jelly. The flour
mix includes a variety of whole-grain flours and defatted soy flour.)

The most unusual way I've had squash is wrapped up corn tortillas
and cooked as enchildas (with red chile sauce).
