Delicata Squash

DELICATA SQUASH YUM!

What are Delicata Squash? They are a mild buttery tasting almost sweet squash that is only in season in Florida around Sept/Oct. and sometimes Nov. They are a great low carb substitute for potatoes, especially as hash browns. In Panama City, Publix carries them and sometimes Walmart but not often @ Walmart.

One way of cooking Delicatas is to cut in half, scoop out pulp/seeds, and place cut side down in a microwave safe dish filled with a little water. Nuke until soft, scoop out and mash with butter, cinnamon, and sugar or Splenda. Another way is Squash Browns, recipe below :)

This is what they look like:
