Mashed Baked Squash

Ingredients

Directions

  1. Bake halves of squash from which the seeds have been removed, cut side down until tender, 1-2 hours or longer. Scrape pulp clean from the shell, mash, add salt, beat well and serve. Baked squash is so sweet that it requires no seasoning but salt, though a little milk or cream may be added if it is very dry.
