I LOVE Veggies, my family loves fruit but I love veggies, all kinds of veggies and I often use them in dinner. I’ve made pumpkin soup, butternut squash soup, candied carrots, creamed corn , and even corn chowder. That’s just the beginning too. My Pumpkin and Squash soup were very similar. I used fresh pumpkin and found that it’s actually very easy to cook pumpkin. You can even wait to pull all the meat out of it until after you roast it in the oven. By waiting it just falls off the skin and it’s so good. Squash is the same! Here is my pumpkin soup recipe.
Today I’m featuring a recipe from Country Crock as I love using Country Crock on my veggies. Here’s Their Baked Squash recipe.
