Just recently someone posted a trick for cooking butternut squash -- stab the sgaush 4 or 5 times around the middle and then cook on high in a micro for
8 - 10 minutes. Let sit for 4 or 5 minutes and voila!! It's a snap to cut it or peel it or what ever else you want to do :)

I slice it in half, scoop out the seeds, roast it in the oven and scoop the soft flesh out. Not peeling and chopping.

It is a chore for sure, BUT it is worth it. We like our soup on the thick side.

I am too lazy to cook unless it is a special occasion@!

LOL! When you cook the squash whole in the micro it comes out fully cooked. Peeling is soft and the seeds are easy to scoop out. The flesh can be scooped out or easily cut into cubes :)

It's so much better after it sits :-) I love that stuff will def be doing that more often. Today I put some chicken and spinach in it. Yum yum.

Gosh that sounds GOOOOOOOD! I usually put chicken bouillon stock powder in mine when I make it and a little garlic like you have. Must make that more often.
