Recipe: Butternut Squash Bowls
My friend gave me a medium-ish sized butternut squash from his garden and I wanted to use it for an easy, quick dinner. We love eating those stuffed spaghetti squash meals where you mix the ingredients and eat them using the squash as a bowl. Butternut squash has a different texture than spaghetti squash, with more of a mashed potato than a pasta consistency.
The results were delicious, so if you get your hands on a butternut squash, give it a try! We now have a gigantic one on our counter so I’d probably double the rest of the ingredients if I were using that bad boy and use it to feed a crowd. Maybe this would be a good potluck dish idea.
Don’t forget, if your garden is still producing a ton of tomatoes, you can make these great recipes submitted by six readers that I posted last summer. Recipes Using Garden Tomatoes Blog Post
