Squash
Women's Health magazine December issue had an article on squash for people like me with no idea what to do with it.
Here are some of the ideas I liked the most
Acorn Squash: " Enjoy it lightly coat with squash surface with butter,sugar, sea salt, and pure maple syrup, then bake
Buttercup Squash: "Enjoy it in a blender, mix chunks of baked buttercup along with tahini, olive oil, lemon juice, cumin, cayenne, salt and pepper for a riff on traditional hummus."
Spaghetti Squash: "Scrape out the cooked strands with a fork, and coats the "noodles" with pesto
Speaking of pesto there was even a pesto recipe in the magazine that used the squash seeds wanna hear it here it go:
Winter Pesto:
2 c. fresh basil
3 cloves garlic
1/4 c. roasted squash seeds
1/2 c extra virgin olive oil
1/3c. parmesan cheese, grated
~Put basil, garlic and seed in a food processor and pulse several times.
~While the motor is running, add olive oil, cheese and salt to taste.
~Process until just smooth and combined.
