I enjoy cooking all types of squash but I usually cook mine in the microwave. i.e. cut squash in half or thirds, scoop out the seeds, place in a microwave container, place ingredients in the squash, put a tiny bit of water in bottom of container, cover with plastic wrap and cook for 8-10 minutes on high. Turns out great and doesn't heat up the kitchen. Hope you try it.
