Dear Squash

I didn't try squash until I was 20 years old. A guy I worked with told me that he was making spaghetti squash for dinner and I wrinkled my nose & asked what that was. He explained he cut a squash in half, baked it, then added sauce, meat, sausage, cheese and baked it a little longer. He told me that the squash came out in strands just like spaghetti.

In my mind, squash is squishy babyfood that looks like throw-up. So I had to try this out. I add random veggies with sauce (green olives are my favorite to add!) or I just skip the sauce all together and put some butter or olive oil with italian seasoning on it.

It literally does taste just like spaghetti... actually, a little better because it has a little crunch to it. Try it! { I've read that it has anti-cancer type effects, have I convinced you to eat this marvelous vegetable yet?!? }
