Tangerine Baked Dumpling Squash with Pine Nuts
"I like to make this with sweet dumpling squash, but you can use acorn squash which is quite similar. This dish has a nice citrus flavor and the pine nuts are a wonderful touch."

I made this as an experimental side for Thankgiving. The recipe has promise, but I found that the zest of 3 tangerines was far too much. The flavor of the squash was overwhelmed by the tangerine flavor. I will try this recipe again, but perhaps with only a tablespoon of zest.
