In reply to Dave. Hi Dave! I can see how that does not add up! However, the directions state to cut the squash in half and then each half in half--that leaves you with 4 pieces. 2 of the pieces (where there are no seeds) are smaller and don't need cut in half again. You just need to cut the 2 halves where the seeds are in half again. So that is 2+4 =6 But the way I worded it, was a bit hard to follow. I updated it to hopefully make it more clear.

In reply to Kristen Chidsey. How do you cut 4 quarters in half and only have 6 pieces?

Works like a charm! If your squash is freshly picked from a garden you may need to increase the minutes. Do not rush it. The slow release is important. Let it cool and scrape, then you can use the cooked squash for many recipes, see the info above.

Definitely plan to try all of your suggested uses for butternut squash and one more that will be such a help to our family: our bearded dragon eats butternut squash every three days and this is so much easier/faster than baking it and cheaper/less wasteful than buying it cubed in bags. Thank you!!

Delicious and so easy to make. This was easier than buying a pre-packaged cut-up butternutsquash from Costco! Just perfect.
