Desperately Seeking Hubbard Squash Recipe......

I sent the boys off to the corn patch yesterday to check and see if it was ready yet.....
Nope....not yet....
I may have planted it to late (June 1st) We'll see.....
The Butternut squashes are not ready yet either.......
But Mr. Hubbard Squash # 1 is......
So the Handsome husband used his Mac Gyver like Skills and cut us a squash from the vine
Ohh....it's so nice and heavy.......
Anyone care to guess how heavy?
Wait...let's make this a contest with a real prize......
I think we all had high hopes......
Here is Monkey Boy training to be a hand model pointing to the scale....9lbs 9.25 oz

Dad won......a package of highly coveted pop rocks.....
which is fitting....cause the monkeys think their Pop rocks......get it ...hahaha
Oh and apparently we have a new pet....a banana slug.....if he escapes his saran wrap lid and slithers across my counter leaving a sticky goo like mess I am going to scream.....

Since I have had a string of bad luck with recipes this weekend.....
does anyone have a good one for hubbard squash?

  1. ThyHand.....what squash site?.....I do remember checking out a cook book this summer with a hubbard pie recipe in it....I am going to trek back to the library and try to look for it this week....The squash is much bigger than an acorn squash...we have some of those growing too so I will use your directions when it's time to roast those babies up :)

I LOVE comments BUT if you know who we are...due to the fact that we are currently enrolled in the international witness relocation program because of a moon shining incident in Dingle, Ireland involving 3 Mutton, a pair of red shoes and a road flare .... please do not reveal our personal information.... You know.... like names, places, or our favorite brand of toilet paper :) Hey, thanks!
