Recipe for Delicata Squash – Let me take a moment to admit that before I made this savory and satisfying recipe for Delicata Squash, I had never used this type of squash before. Not one time. The reason this recipe for delicata squash is here now is because at least once every other week, I casually walk by the local farmer’s produce and grab everything I don’t recognize.

Then, I come home and pair the seasonal vegetable with herbs from my garden and either roast or saute. Next, I make the recipe over and over again. Get my entire family to weigh it on it. Then, BOOM! I add it here for all to enjoy.

Savory, Salty and Loaded with Rosemary

I will admit, I am no longer hesitant to try out another new squash. A few weeks ago, I picked up some Patty Pan Squash (they look like UFO’s) and ended up sauteing them with garlic and onion. The Patty Pan Squash recipe turned out far better than I anticipated.

If you love savory, salty and rosemary, then you must try this Rosemary and Spinach Casserole and these Homemade Marinated Artichokes. For me, they do the trick and this recipe for delicata squash reminded me of how much I love the smell and flavor of rosemary.
