Delicata Squash

The next time you're at the market, don't walk past those cream-colored striped squash that look like oblong submarines! They are nature's answer to hassel-free cooking.

Unlike their tough-skinned cousins, these beauties require zero peeling. And they're super-easy to slice through and hollow out.

While they shine in salads and make a stunning side dish, their true calling is as edible vessels, just begging to be stuffed with your favorite fillings.
