HI everyone,

 

I do not have MC- but I make a dish from Weight Watcher's Versatile

Vegetarian ( got it when I was doing weight watchers, but I still use many

recipes from it believe it or not). Anyway- this is my favorite recipe from

it, and it uses sqush. You will love it. Squash is sooo easy to use. This

one uses butternut squash. In pinches, i have successfully substituted sweet

potatoes.

 

It's called Carribean Gingered Squash , Rice, and Kale. It's a great one

dish meal or side dish. I make marinated bakesd tofu with it for protein,

and the squash and kale are great veggies and squash and rice are enough

carbs

 

It's not HOT spicy, but it is gingery and has a jalepeno in it. I make it

extra hot and tangy- but you can easily control that.

 

Maybe someone could post that one for Emmy... and the rest of the group.

 

Have a great day all!

Winter Squash

 

 

Hello over there,

Does anyone have any good recipes for the winter squash?? It seems

everyone is giving us different kids of squash some I know what are some I

have no clue but thought I'd ask all of you wonderful cooks to get some

recipes.

Unfortunately for cooks, no. Ya just gotta choose up sides. :-)

LOL! Yeah, I have a gay friend who's a smoker, so I've heard just about

every joke ever based on that one. :)

Yep. I think you call some of them marrows, though this mainly seems to

apply to squashes that look like fat zucchini and were bred for some to

be eaten young and some to be left on the plant to develop past the

tenderskinned stage. By " winter squash " , we do mean those (of which we

grow fewer than you do), but also (and mainly) the toughskinned to

hardshelled squashes, most of them with sweet, dense orange flesh,

that are never eaten young. Those are harvested in late summer or fall

and will keep for a good while, some of them through the winter. They

include types such as Hubbard, butternut, acorn, banana, delicata,

spaghetti, Jarrahdale, buttercup, Lakota, cheese and Sweet Meat.

 

Personally, I adore 'em all, but my faves are butternut and the

oldfashioned

Blue Hubbard. The latter, with slaty bluegrey skin and thick orange

flesh, can be harvested in September and will often keep till March,

and its sweet, dense meat is wonderfully creamy and flavorful when

baked. It can go 45 pounds if really well grown, but averages 15 to

30, on huge sprawling vines. I just don't have room for anything that

big, so this year I'm trying a " baby Hubbard " hybrid, and we'll see if

it's

any good.

 

A pumpkin is also a winter squash, of course, but for some reason is

rarely

referred to as such.

Thank you for the information. I looked at a few sites on the

Internet and was amazed by the variety.

One could practically leave on squash for months without repeating a

recipe.
