All this squash eating has us also eating a lot of squash seeds. Now whenever I bake squash I also bake the seeds at the same time. I put them in a cast iron fry pan and drizzle a little oil over them and then just sprinkle with whatever herbs or seasonings we feel like - a nice snack to tide us over while dinner finishes cooking. I think I'll try to find a few more new recipes to see us through this winter season and then, before we know it Spring will be here, with fresh greens, asparagus, nettle, lamb's quarter and lots more.

With you on trying to eat as much local,seasonal produce as possible. Just love the butternut squash gnocchi. I will try this recipe very soon. Thanks!
That gnocchi looks wonderful. Oh, how I miss my mom's gnocchi. Isn't it wonderful how such a simple dish can bring so much comfort?
After making some root veg soup today, I still have one butternut squash to use up. This looks just the recipe. Yum!
Also, I'm really enjoying your blog! We have many of the same interests and goals. You may want to check out the blog I started this year: cultivatingconscience.com
(I have posted a link to you in my blogroll.)
Thanks for the inspiration!
I may try that soup. Thanks for sharing! Good idea with the seeds. Never thought to cook the up in a pan have always done in the oven.
i've done a similar recipe with sweet potatoes and it was great - this looks good too.
