Acorn Squash with Herbs and Parmesan

I was recently introduced to Carnival squash, which is a lot like acorn squash but is a little sweeter and colored differently on the outside. But since I haven't eaten acorn squash much either, I went looking for recipes to make with it, and settled on this.

Notes:

  • I used olive oil instead of ghee/butter.
  • The second time I made it, the skin took on a really unappetizing texture (might depend on how fresh/large your squash is; this one was kind of big and had a more stringy texture compared to the one I used the first time). I peeled the cooked slices, threw away the skins and mashed the flesh to eat instead. Yum.

Verdict: I loved it and would absolutely make it again.
