The winner…
I had such a difficult time choosing a winner! I had to consult a few judges (my sister, the boyfriend, and Lindsey) for votes. They ALL chose the same entry!
Without further ado… the winner of this week’s BSI is…
Julie with Acorn Squash and Apple Pizza!
Since most of the entries were “stuffed squash” variations, I was torn between the others that were different. It was a close call!
Head on over to Lindsey’s blog to find out what next week’s Secret Ingredient is!

WOW – these recipes all look so good! Thanks for the squash inspiration! (I almost said squashpiration… but decided it was kind of lame… and confusing). anywho – thanks!!
Woohoo! Thanks for the win
All the recipes look soooo good, I can see why it would be hard to pick. I just got an acorn squash at the Farmer’s Market this weekend, and its going to be tough to choose which one to try first!
The pizza looks so good. I also like the roasted squash with walnuts, and the apples and acorn squash look divine!
The pizza looks really good!! Congrats to the winner.
Thank you so much for including me into the contest this week. It was so much fun!
They all look incredible!!
Those look so good! Note to self: buy an acorn squash and try one of these out!
Thanks to you, I am planning to make acorn squash more often. We enjoyed it and I am sure we will enjoy the above recipes, also. They all look terrific.
Thanks for hosting.
Honestly, all of them look DELICIOUS

Don’t let spinning scare you! seriously, you can go at your own pace.
My sister doesn’t do any exercise and made it through. She got tired at the end so she turned the resistance down.
