Thanks Lapadia, just had the leftovers for lunch today... perfect for a cold stormy day in the Puget Sound... does it smell like winter out there to you, because it does to me!
Mmmmm. So luscious. They sound sooo tasty. I bet these would also be good with a bit of crispy prosciutto and perhaps a lightly smoked cheese instead of the cheddar. Love it!! ;o)
Oooh, crispy proscuitto or pancetta would be a fantastic addition!! I really think any good melty cheese would work--I used jack, but I can also see adding in a smoked gouda, fontina...maybe even a little gruyere?
This sounds FABULOUS!! Very creative use of the ubiquitous squash.
Thanks! The bnut is one of my favorite things to play with... so many possibilities, most of them delicious!
Let me know how you like it!
