Acorn: This ridged, acorn-shaped squash with the dark green skin may be the best known of the winter squashes, although it doesn't provide quite as much beta-carotene as other orange-fleshed squash.
Buttercup: So named because of its turbanlike cap at the blossom end (opposite the stem end), buttercup has a squat shape. Its dark green skin is punctuated with lighter green stripes. The orange flesh is sweet but somewhat dry.
Butternut: The orange flesh of this tan, smooth-skinned squash provides a substantial amount of beta-carotene.
