I like that recipe for stuffed marrows. My mum used to make one with an italian meat stuffing similar to bolognaise. It used to be my favourite of hers, but I was the only one in the family who liked it. And she tried it with a middle eastern inspired lamb mince, with cumin, coriander and pine nuts. YUM!

I'm so confused!!!!
Would Marrows (which I think of as the inside of bones as in veal shanks - yum) be acorn squash? Zucchinni? Crookneck? Hubbard? We have so many different kinds of squash! Of course I love them all!
Acorn squash, though, I just steam and eat with brown sugar and butter & a little salt.....others are better for savory stuff and for stuffing!

All them things with pumpkin ,and all we do with them is keep um for halloween
are the recipes nice though and would you conpare it with marrow ???
moma had away with words (Forest Gump)
I'll post some recipes some time soon............they taste entirely different to marrow, sort of sweet, more flavour than a marrow. But not the evil ones you buy at Halloween, the green skinned ones or butternut squash (we call them pumpkin in Australia) are the best ones for cooking. The bright orange ones are ok roasted though, yum!

Cream of Pumpkin soup...yum!
I only make it once a year and DH despises it so I freeze it in single servings and keep it all for myself! Comfort food!

I love pumpkin! In addition to making pies, muffins, and pumpkin bread, I like to cook and mash it with a little butter and eat it as a side "vegetable." You can also cut the top of the pumpkin off (like you would do to use it as a jack-o-lantern), scoop out the seeds, and bake the pumpkin. Then fill it with your favorite beef stew. When you scoop out your stew, scrape out some of the pumpkin along with it. Yum!kyles said:
