| Directions |
- Wash squash and put into slow cooker whole, if it will fit. If not, cut in half, scrape out strings and seeds and cut into whatever size pieces will best fit. Add 1 tablespoon liquid, cover and cook on low until squash is easily pierced through. Cooking time will vary with size and type of squash, usually 3-6 hours. Since it doesn't dry out in the slow cooker, over cooking is generally not a problem.
- Squash can be served from the shell (if cooked whole, remove seeds and stringy pulp) or scraped out and mashed or puréed, then seasoned as desired.
- TIP: If cooking a large squash, remember that any extra will freeze well--and makes a delicious "pumpkin" pie.
