Squash in the Pot

So it turns out you can cook winter squash WHOLE in the crock pot! This was great news to me, because I love the way butternut and acorn squash taste, but hate hacking them up, and never seem to get them quite right in the oven. So you just wash them well, and stick them in the pot with 2 tablespoons of water, and let them go on LOW for 4-9 hours, or until you can stick a fork all the way through. I have to admit it didn't smell terrific during cook time, but they scooped out like a dream and I just reheated them with some curry, brown sugar and butter. Delicious!
