Keep Your Fork

Back in the day, when I was growing up, when mom said, "Keep your fork", that meant there was some really good desert to come. Might be cherry pie (one of Dad's favorites) or might be Danish pastry (one of my grandmother's specialities.)

We are just coming out of the winter cycle for vegetables. A time when selection of vegetables is limited.

However, let me recommend that you "Keep your fork" and here is why.

Exotic Cheesy Acorn Squash and Leek Dip

Lisa created a great dip for using acorn squash (or the squash of your choice) and leeks. The ingredients can be used with chips or grilled baguette slices.

I normally suggest people cook their squash whole, but in this case it is beneficial to cut then in half and remove the seeds.

We served this when we had company the other night to rave reviews.
