"I got the base of this recipe from a cookbook called "The Best Slow-Cooker Cookbook Ever", but I changed it up to suit us. This is an excellent way to get kids to eat their squash!"

This recipe intrigued me and as I had the relevant ingredients at hand, decided to try it - sorry but this recipe did nothing for me - I wasn't sure what to expect but I will not be trying this one again! I ended up feeding it to the birds.
RECIPE SUBMITTED BY
I am a mother of 2 young kids, one of which is picky. I came to the 'Zaar looking for new ways to prepare foods to try and get my family to eat healthier. I am proud to say both my picky one and my picky husband are eating a lot more vegtables and liking them!
I love to collect cookbooks (don't we all) because I am always on the hunt for yummy new recipes. When I find a recipe I love, it goes on a 4x6 card and into my recipe box for future use. Since I like trying new things, the recipe has to be pretty special for me to hang on to it. I would say a good 90% of what I make I like, but just not enough for it to be THE recipe. I am generally not a picky eater, I like most things, but am just always on the look out for something different.
I want us to eat healthier and have been preparing healthier foods, but we do enjoy the occasional bad meal. :) I am trying to do a couple all veggie dinners each week, a couple nights of fish, and the rest of the week is a toss up with chicken filling in the majority of the time.
