Thanksgiving Dish: Glazed Butternut Squash

 Glazed Butternut Squash Recipe:
3 pounds butternut squash, peeled*

1/2 cup apple cider*

1/4 cup water

2 tablespoons butter 

1 tablespoon sugar

1 teaspoon salt 

1/2 teaspoon pepper 

1/4 cup chopped toasted pecans

1 tablespoon chopped fresh or 1 tsp. dried sage

I chose this recipe because during Thanksgiving dinner because almost every dish is a savory one. With all that salt and non-sweet ingredients It seems as though this glazed butternut squash would be a good addition to my Thanksgiving meal. Especially because this dish doesn't seem to sweet or desert like, so I think it will be a great way to change up the taste of things on my plate. In my family we serve the pumpkin pie and other deserts after our main meal so my thought process is that this dish shouldn't interfere with our desert dishes.
