Hubby and I, in general, do one VERY large meal per week-end, and last night was that meal.
When I go grocery shopping sometimes I ask him if he would like anything special, and sometimes I just make it a surprise, which I did this time.
He sooo enjoys a big, fat, juicy steak on the grill and then smothering it in mushrooms, while I prefer a pork loin (this one being pre-seasoned by the butcher) because steak, although I enjoy two or three bites, otherwise is just too much for me to digest.
And, of course it is winter squash season so once a month I bring home an acorn or spaghetti squash. Sliced and buttery and of course mine has a bit of brown sugar. We enjoy these tremendously.
So, today I posted these photos on Facebook and my darling friend, Susan told me that she has discovered Delicata Squash and is enjoying it even more than the Acorn Squash..... so I googled it and came across this recipe which I hope to try the next time I go squash shopping. I'll let you know how it turns out and what I think about the flavor of this squash.
Here is the Link To The Recipe I hope to try.
If anyone out there has a good recipe for Delicata Squash or bakes it differently, please share with all of us squash loving fools.

You will love the delicata! Those are some perfect grill marks on that pork...kudos to David!
YUM!
You take such great pics of food!!!
I enjoy acorn squash this time of year too, with a little brown sugar, of course. I have never heard of Delicata. I am wondering what the difference is? Your dinner looks wonderful! We love our steaks smothered in mushrooms too! ~Patti
Set a place for me next time. Looks good. Although for reasons I don't understand, I have lost my taste for meat in my "older" years. I wonder why.
Dinner looks yummy! I keep eyeing the butternut squash but haven't picked one up yet-gotta get on that:@)
oh that looks delish! i love mushrooms with my steak too! or sometimes i'll saute some onions/peppers/mushrooms and scoop over the top, yummy!
It looks amazing! I would love the mushrooms the best. Steak isn't my favorite - unless it's on a black and blue salad - I do love those once in a while.
The food looks delicious! Sadly I'm the only one in the family that loves squash. On the other hand, that does leave more for me... ;-)
Pork loin and squash. That meal looks wonderful. And y'all didn't have me for dinner? So sad! That would have been my favorite meal.
My hubs and I had steak (he had filet and I had ribeye) and potatoes (he had russet and I had sweet).
It's like we had nearly the same meal!
Oh dear! Forgot to say that I am wanting to try the Delecata squash. I haven't found it around here yet. I must not be looking hard enough.
Those look yummy. I will have to look for that type of squash in the store. We enjoy the winter squashes, too.
We cook pork tenderloins about twice a month. We are not steak people and by we I mean me. I do all the cooking:}
That STEAK! With mushrooms!
OMG . . . I haven't had lunch and I am starved. Looks DELICIOUS . . .
Have you ever tried making chicken ciacatore type sauce & putting it on the squash after you've "pulled" it with a fork (making strands)? We eat a lot of pork loin here...:)JP
oh that steak with the mushrooms looks so good. I love squash but my husband hates it. I haven't had it in ages
