Nancy O's Squash Dressing
This is delicious. The first time I made this, Dick turned up his nose because it wasn't "Southern dressing." That translates to "it wasn't Mamma's." Talk about ticked off. In a fit of pique, I threw the leftovers to the coons. [Living in the boonies as we do, we have an assortment of wildlife who frequent our yard at night. If we don't feed them, they wreak all sorts of havoc on the bird feeders. Usually they get dried dogfood. Wild animals don't need human food--except in very special circumstances. Like these.]
Patsy, who's not much into squash, came in a few days later looking for the leftovers. When I told her I'd tossed them to the coons, she nearly cried.
This recipe is truly tasty.
