Hazelnut & Honey Roasted Squash image

I enjoy both winter squash and nuts and combined them to make this tasty variation on baked acorn squash. I added apples to give it an extra level of flavor. It will go well with most hearty entrees.-Gloria Bradley, Naperville, Illinois

This was a bit too sweet for my taste, but I think it would be perfect for people who like sweet and savory dishes.

I'm not a huge fan of squash, but this recipe changed my mind. The honey and hazelnut glaze is amazing!

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover squash. I had some roasted butternut squash in my fridge and this was the perfect way to use it up.
