BUTTERNUT SQUASH & LEEKS
I found the basic recipe in a magazine, don't know which one. This is a tasty recipe, and really quite simple. The hardest part is the peeling of the squash.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400.
- Original recipe called for 400 - I think, like the one reviewer mentioned - may be too high. Maybe 375? Another thought is to maybe add the leeks a little into the cookiing -- the squash is definatly going to take longer to cook. Just some tweaking going on here. thanks for looking, and cooking!
- In a large bowl, mix the squash, leeks, herb, salt, pepper, olive oil and pecans (if your are using them) together.
- Place on a cookie sheet (may take 2) and cook for appx 1/2 hour.
- This is some really good stuff!
- Cook time is 1/2 hour, prep time is going to vary - the squash does take time, but well worth it.
- Edit to add that after peeling, seeding and halving/quartering the squash, put it in the microwave for 2 to 3 minutes. This will help with dicing of the squash and help even out the cooking time with the leeks.

[email protected]I'm not sure what went wrong, but my dish was a complete disaster. The sauce was curdled and the vegetables were mushy.
Corey Black
[email protected]I followed the recipe exactly and my dish turned out great! The sauce was a little thin, but that was easily fixed by adding a bit of cornstarch.
