This roasted acorn squash with jalapeño is a must-make side dish for all occasions.

From all the amazing recipes I have for acorn squash, and this one is by far my favorite. It is the simplest and easiest recipe to make! Just add all ingredients to a baking sheet or cast-iron pan and bake! Every time it comes out perfect.

You can serve it as a side dish as it is, or add some tofu, or chickpeas, or apples! I love having this acorn squash with jalapenos all year around, but I indulge throughout the cold months from October to March. The roasted acorn added to stews, soups, or chilis is a great idea!
Try making it with different kinds of onions. Red onions are also fantastic instead of shallots.

This is one of my go-to recipes and I make it quite often for my meal prep; it is from the Food Network Magazine, and it is delicious as a side dish! In this meal prep. I have roasted acorn squash, apricot and almond rice, and refried beans.
