Delicata squash is a small squash which isn't very sweet,so it works perfectly for a savory dish and is also tender which makes it perfect for serving in it as a dish.I was shopping around for thanksgiving and found these at trader joes ,they looked cute,so I got them home to give them a try.These pictures were taken at a vacation home in San Diego,I didn't have the proper dishes/light to take better pictures,so please forgive me,but trust me on the taste,perfect for a warm vegetarian dish.
