What Can I Do With Winter Squash?

A true comfort food, winter squash is much more than a simple side dish. It can be used to add color and texture to baked good, makes a wonderful addition to roasted vegetables, and creates a luscious soup that is filling and rich.  It's a seasonal vegetable that is often overlooked. It's actually inexpensive and stores well. As long as you have a cool place to keep it whole, you can store winter squash for months. If you don't have room to store a big Blue Hubbard, try cooking the squash down and freezing your own puree. Using quart sized freezer bags, freeze in 2 cup portions for recipes. It's a nice, useable amount.
