Sage Butternut Squash Gratin
This recipe reminds me of fall evenings at Grandma’s, where the kitchen smelled like roasted squash and herbs. She taught me that a little sage and cream could turn simple ingredients into something unforgettable. This gratin is warm, savory, and perfect for cozy nights or festive gatherings.
