Most squash works well that way. I do that with acorn squash. Split it in

half, put a little cinnamon & brown sugar substitute...or I have put some sf

maple syrup in each half (big yum on that one). You could also try some

cranberries in them. Kim O

Okay, I feel like I'm getting quite the " veggie education " here lately -- but

WHAT the heck is sparrygrass? Sounds like something my husband kills with

Roundup!

Ahhhh... I " googled " this and wonder if you mean SPARROWGRASS? It appears to

be asparagus.

I'm sorry! I like to play with words sometimes. Yep that's my

bastardization of asparagus or sparrowgrass to sparrygrass.

As a peace offering, here's another great recipe for sparrygrass salad.

This is a great " company " dish: you steam the sparry till it's tender crunchy,

put in frig and let it cool. Right before you want to serve you dress it

with oil, good balsamic vinegar (get the best you can afford it makes a world of

difference), chopped walnuts, and gorgonzola (sp?) cheese. Salt & pepper to

taste. Mix it up and serve, it is to die for delicious.

LOVE spaghetti squash, but it is hard to find small ones and the BIG ones

are just too darn big. Can't EAT that much! Cut in half, bake until you can

poke it with a fork and it is tender, take out...scoop out squash from the

shell, butter and salt. OH YUMMMMMM!!!!!!

With acorn squash, I cut it in half, scoop out the seeds, put in a little

butter & salt, and bake it. Then I just eat it right out of the shell.

Yummy!
