Cranberry Squash

All of the pumpkin and squash in the fall is so fun to play with - when it comes to cooking.  :)  My friends, Tracee, recommended I try this recipe from Elana's Pantry.  She told me her husband says the squash are like pieces of candy.  So, of course, I had to try it.  And it was soooo delicious!

Cranberry Squash

1 large butternut squash, peeled, cut into cubes

1/2 c. dried cranberries

3 vanilla beans

1 1/2 t. ground cinnamon

10 slivers lemon peel

1 c. apple juice

1/2 t. sea salt

Toss ingredients together in a 9x13 baking dish.  Bake covered for 1 hour at 350º.  Remove cover and bake for an additional 10 minutes to brown.  Serve.
