  • Cut up and saute in butter with onions - dash of garlic salt. I mix zuchini and yellow. Very good.

    Do you have a crock pot? If not, I suggest investing in one. It can be used as a make shift oven. I do have an oven, but never use it in the summer. So I use the crock pot in replace of it.

    I usually wrap my squash in aluminum foil and let it cook over night (or you could do this during work) in the crock pot.

    For summer squashes I slice them lengthwise and season, then cook cut side down in a hot skillet sprayed with a little oil until browned. I don't turn them because I like the uncut side to stay crunchy. Or use them in a stir fry.

    For winter squashes, a pureed soup is yummy or I like to cube them and sauté in olive oil with chopped onion.

    Winter squashes are also really good stewed with a pork loin.

    Risotto. With pretty much any other veg you fancy. Mushrooms and asparagus work well.
