The day will begin with a photo shoot and video with Atlanta Homes and Lifestyles magazine, Nathalie cooking with 11 of our Serenbe inn guests and then sitting together to enjoy our wonderful meal.

The series continues Monday with more cooking with Nathalie, lunch and an afternoon of fun.

What inspires me to create a recipe

Written by , Posted in butternut squash, marie nygren, Recipe Articles, Serenbe Farmhouse



Recently we had a multitude of butternut squash come out of the farmhouse garden and I wondered what I would do with all of this squash. After thinking about what our dinner guests would enjoy, I decided to try a candied butternut squash.

It amazed me how many people came into the Farmhouse who had never eaten a butternut squash. Once they tasted what we had prepared, the reviews were all the same.



“Wow, the squash is so delicious!”

I love butternut squash because in addition to being delicious it is also very nutritious.
I hope you enjoy my recipe!

Candied Butternut Squash

  • 2 1/4 pound butternut squash; halved, seeded, peeled, and cut into small 1/2″ chunks.
  • 6 tablespoons butter, melted
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1 teaspoon of ground cinnamon
Preheat oven to 375º. Place squash in a 8 x 8 x 2 inch glass baking dish. Drizzle with butter, toss to coat. Blend sugar and cinnamon, mix into squash.

Bake until squash is tender, about 35-50 minutes depending on freshness of squash.

Recipe Contest!

Written by , Posted in "green beans", marie nygren, serenbe, Serenbe Farmhouse

Time is up for the October contest. Please check back in November for the chosen ingredient to submit your favorite recipe!

I am excited to tell my blog readers about a great new contest starting today and continuing each month for an entire year.

Beginning on the first day of each month, I will ask my readers to email a recipe featuring one specific ingredient that I choose.

For October we will be featuring green beans which are currently plentiful here at Serenbe Farms.

I would love the recipe you submit to have a southern flavor or twist. Each month I will be accepting recipes from the first of the month until the 20th of the month.

At the end of each month, the winning recipe will be featured on the blog and will also be featured as a part of my Farmhouse menu! In addition to the acknowledgement of using your recipe, I will also be inviting you and a guest for a complimentary dinner here in Serenbe at the Farmhouse restaurant.
At the end of the year I have a big bonus for our Grand Prize winner. The winner will be chosen from all 12 recipes used throughout the year and you will receive a complimentary weekend stay for two at the Serenbe Inn. A panel of judges will have a taste testing day where we cook all the recipes and choose the grand prize winner!
Please email your recipe to marie@serenbe.com.
