rootofnewtSo... supper.
I saw the crookneck squash. I had about 3/4 pound (six *small* crooknecks). Washed them, sliced them into thin rounds, tossed them in a saucepan with some butter and diced red onion (about 1/2 cup onion)... tossed and cook briefly over medium heat, just til tender.
Made a cheese sauce in a sauce pan. It was basically Mueller's mac & cheese sauce, but I used a stick of mozzarella string cheese, three slices of emmenthaler swiss, about two oz havarti and 2 oz sharp cheddar... I think that was it. I could've used more, but got tired of chopping cheese. I was using up ends and bits, anyhow. i also sprinkled in some fennelseed.
used up some freezer/cupboard/fridge ends: 1/2 cup frozen peas, a cup of leftover garlic/butter broccoli, and a can of corn (drained). added the squash, onion, mixed, then poured over the cheese sauce. since i'm wheat-free today, i had boy crush some glutano crispbread and sprinkle the crumbs over the top. baked at 375 for 30 minutes.
It's pretty yummy. i should've used more fennel--a teaspoon or two, instead of two generous pinches. and more cheese would be nice, but not necessary.

Date: 2003-09-24 06:52 am (UTC)Acorn squash, cut in half, baked, scooped out.
Mixed up the insides with fake sausage, cranberries, stuffing mix.
Stuck it back in the shell, baked it for 25 minutes.
Also very yummy.
