| My son Shane was a judge at
Tierra Vegetables' pumpkin pie
contest. He and the other esteemed judges tasted
10 pies. The first place winner was the young Lily
Alves and her recipe As Simple as A Child's Pumpkin
Pie developed by her Grandma Karen Alves. Very
tasty.
As Simple As A Child's Pumpkin Pie
4 1" rounds of Butternut Squash
4 tablespoons Butter
cut into quarters
1 teaspoon. Cinnamon
1/4 teas. Allspice
1/2 teas. Vanilla
1/2 cup Brown Sugar
1/2 cup Chopped walnuts
A few turns of fresh ground nutmeg
Juice of 1/2 orange (you can add more as it cooks to keep
the bottom of the pan juicy)
Arrange rounds of squash and place one square of butter
on top. Sprinkle the remaining ingredients on top of the
squash.
Bake at 375 until tender. Pour fresh cream over each squash
round and serve hot.
Enjoy!!!!
