Do you have a huge, fabulous squash sitting on your table longing to be enjoyed? Roast it all at once, then puree it in a blender or food processor. Use any size squash in this recipe as a base to roast and puree it for other uses— anytime pureed squash or canned pumpkin is called for.
Italian amaretti cookies are crushed and blended into this simple squash gratin to create a slightly sweet, totally savory gratin that I personally am a tad addicted to. Or at least, I find myself eating more and more when it is gracing our table. Serve it as the main show or as a side dish for fancy meal. Roast the squash in advance or even use roasted canned squash instead. Make this dairy free by skipping the cheese and grease the pan with your preferred oil. The cookies are naturally gluten-free.
Bitter greens, sweet roasted garlic & jewels of golden raisins balance each other in this simple toss. Roasting the garlic in advance will make this dish a lot easier.
