What is your favorite butternut squash recipe? I have a couple still left from my garden and sadly my kids are not fans of steamed squash. It's my favorite to steam it, but I would like to try it another way and see if my kids will enjoy it. I did try roasting it once, but it turned out mushy and I would have rather it been crispy.

You can cube it and make a dressing/stuffing with it. Instead of bread.
Puree with spices, broth and cream for a yummy soup with crusty bread.
You can also use it in place of pumpkin for pies etc. Just remember the spices!
Or try making air fries with it?

You can use it in everything for which you would use pumpkin!

Krista -- I have my favorite recipe for macaroni and cheese that uses buttternut squash. It's great for kids as they can't tell it has squash in it. It's a bit longish for me to type here (painful fingers) so I'll make a copy of it and mail it to you.

Lisa, I never thought to make fries out of them! Thank you for the ideas.
Thank you Denise!
Judith, I appreciate that! Thank you! My kids love mac and cheese, so I bet it will be a hit.
