I am sorry to see the end of the Butternuts.  I found this year, my favorite butternut squash was the simplest - peel, seed, and cube.  Put into a pot with a good knob of butter a little water for the bottom of the pot and a good amount of grated ginger, salt to taste.  Put the lid on and cook until tender.  So simple, so delicious.  I also find I really crave a combination of the sweetness of the butternut with the bitterness and earthy flavor of greens.  With this week's share I would cook up my favorite butternut, and serve it with some sautéed arugula or mustard greens along with some protein, beans (particularly black beans) or some roasted chicken you would have a simple and fairly quick meal.
