Pumpkins and Hubbard Squash

This very ugly squash finally was cut open.

It looked like this inside, very similar to a pumpkin or other squash.

We cut it open, removed the seeds and cooked it to make puree.

We roasted the seeds and froze the squash. It is supposed to make excellent pies, similar to pumpkin.

At the same time we cut up, pureed, and roasted the seeds from our pumpkins we grew this year. Needless to say Katie lost one of her toys.

Kevin and Katie worked on removing the seeds and cleaning them. I helped with the cooking. We used the oven and microwave this year and got quite a bit of puree. We them made pumpkin butter with a large portion of it but I will save that for another post.
