Acorn Squash and Sweet Potato Mash

This turned out quite well...
2 acorn squash
2 med sweet potatoes - wrapped in foil
1 whole garlic nob, wrapped in foil.

Put them all on the barbeque, and cook the squash until soft on the inside and black on the outside, and the potatoes are soft to the touch.

Cool so you can handle them. Then cut the acorn squash in half, seed them gently and then scrape out the soft pulp and put in bowl. Peel the potatoes with your hands, and the interior is soft to the touch. Mash everything with a fork.

Open the garlic and squish the cloves and you will find the garlic is mushy and carmelized. It's really good just spread on bread too...but take the soft garlic and add it to the potatoes and squash.

Add:
garlic, s&p, cayenne, olive oil, pine nuts, parmesan cheese.
