squash mania
I made spaghetti squash for dinner, with sauce and Trader Joe's meatless meatballs, one of our guilty pleasures.
The spaghetti squash came from our CSA--we're getting a backlog of squash. Did I already list you the list? Four delicata, one spaghetti squash now, and a small pumpkin.

Roasting delicata squash in the oven seems a hell of a lot better than microwaving it. I'll do that tomorrow.

I love spaghetti squash! As for the backlog, what about baking some muffins or bread?

Jen made spaghetti squash recently. We have another one waiting too.
I don't love it, but it's not bad. It's low calorie!

Hey, Mandy and MC.
Mandy, do you mean pumpkin bread? Or have you made bread with other kinds of squash? Do you think I could use spaghetti squash in a bread?
MC, I don't love it either. That's cool it's low cal. A redeeming trait.

I don't think spaghetti squash is sweet enough for bread or has the right texture, but I have heard of people using other kinds of squash in bread. One of T's housemates made a pumpkin bread with some squash he had on hand, and while it wasn't as tasty as pumpkin bread, it was nice.

Hi again, Mandy. I too thought spaghetti squash wouldn't make a good bread, but I thought I'd just try it, and I'm glad I did because I suspect that that leftover spaghetti squash would have gone to waste if I hadn't.
