We have something different for butternut squash-lovers, and we know there are many seeking something different to do with squash. This Italian treatment adds a bit of sweet and sour taste… Butternut Squash Agrodolce. Think red wine vinegar, mint, and honey. Pure Italian countryside. But here’s what’s fantastic about this dish. Cooking Light Magazine published this recipe some time ago, and they’ve lightened it up, in case you want to save the extra calories for our pumpkin pie recipe with a streusel topping.
