Butternut squash is finally in season, so here are twenty of the best butternut squash recipes from around the web that you should be cooking right now!

I’ve done recipe roundups before here on Le Petit Eats, but today I’m introducing a new series called What to Cook Now. Since my inspiration for what to make in the kitchen is almost exclusively based on what’s in season (the best way to govern your cooking decisions, if you ask me), these posts will highlight one particular ingredient that’s in peak season with tons of recipes showing you deliciously creative uses for it.

Are you into it?
