I did a search on this and didn't come up w/anything...

I've been given 2 acorn squash, and don't know what to do w/them. Anyone have any brilliant ideas?

Thanks!!

Here's one recipe I found from Shazzie's site. There's even a picture.

Squash and kumquat soup
Special thanks to Shazzie at Shazzie.com

Half an acorn squash (or whatever squash you can find)
6 kumquats
1 carrot
1 yellow or orange bell pepper
1 teaspoon of freshly peeled lemon rind
1 small hot chilli
1 tablespoon of fresh coconut meat
1 clove of garlic
5 dried apricots (rehydrated)
1 sundried tomato
1 cup of sunflower or almond milk
1 cups of water

If you have a juicer, juice the kumquats, bell pepper, coconut meat and apricots, then add everything to the blender and blend until everything is liquidized. If you don't have a juicer, chop all solid ingredients and add everything to your blender, blend everything until it's liquid and then
strain the soup. If you want a thicker soup, add some of the pulp back in.

It's nice to serve this with a little grated squash, some sunflower seeds
and some chopped spring onions on top.
