Butternut Squash & Leek Clafoutis
Clafoutis is a baked French dessert of fruit, traditionally cherries, arranged in a buttered dish and covered with a thick flan-like batter. This dessert originated in the Limousin area of France, where batters play an important role. This Butternut Squash and Leek Clafoutis is a savory version. It's simple to make and my husband absolutely loved it and wants me to keep the recipe handy. The problem with me, (and I have many problems!) is that I make so many new things that I forget to make some of our old favorites.

Cheesy Spicy Zucchini and Corn Pie
I drove from Elkhart Indiana to Ann Arbor Michigan and took the back roads through Amish farm country and corn fields. I realized how much I love it and yet I would be bored out of my mind if I still lived here. All that corn reminded me of this Cheesy Spicy Zucchini and Corn Pie that I made a few weeks ago.

Hasselback Butternut Squash with Balsamic Maple Rosemary Glaze
Hasselback is usually associated with potatoes, but you can do it to many vegetables. It's nothing more than whole vegetables cut in such a way as to resemble a fan or accordion when roasted. The outside becomes crisp and brown while the inside is soft and creamy. Hasselback Butternut Squash with Balsamic Maple Rosemary Glaze works really well using this method. It makes a beautiful side dish.

You can really use any kind of squash. I used a Kabocha and an Acorn squash in the recipe.
