Tastes and Flavors of Fall

[Shel_B]

I'm looking for some new ways to use winter squash and fall vegetables in concert, along with some interesting or unusual spices or herbs, to produce healthy meals and side dishes. It would be nice to eliminate or minimize the use of butter and cream, but not necessarily elimiate those ingredients.

Any ideas?

Soup! Possibilities are endless, and the results can be highly virtuous.

Stuff fresh pasta. Everybody loves fresh pasta.

I like winter squash in a curry. Lots of spicy heat plus turmeric and fenugreek, no need for a big caloric count.

edit: horrified to see spell check missed "count" without the "o"

I like to use spaghetti squash like noodles in a bird's nest. Cook them up, scrape out the noodle like strands and then drape over a bowl and bake to crisp them and hold the shape. Then fill with your favorite chinese dish.
