Butternut Squash Recipes

Butternut squash is one of my favorite ingredients to cook withโ€”sweet, nutty, and perfect for everything from soups and sides to hearty mains. This collection brings together the cozy, colorful recipes I make on repeat all season long.

When I want something simple and versatile, I start with Roasted Butternut Squashโ€”great as a side or base for other dishes. For something rich and comforting, Butternut Squash Soupย or a creamy Butternut Squash Casserole always hits the spot. When Iโ€™m after something a little more filling, Pork Chops with Butternut Squash is a fall favorite, and the Butternut Squash Salad is perfect for lunches or holiday spreads.
