Squash Fun Facts


Most squashes (zucchini/ butternut) taste better when smaller.... EXCEPT Spaghetti Squash, they taste better when they are larger in size.

Acorn Squash are sweeter in flavour than others. (Try when making raviloli, or with butter and brown sugar)

Squashes are fruits!

TERRY -LYNN'S GLUTEN FREE PIZZA CRUST

1c cornstarch
1/2c white rice flour (brown works too)
1/8c tapioca flour
2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
1/4c oil (I use olive)
3/4c soymilk

Stir all ingredients together. It should be like a thick thick icing.
Poor into baking sheet (TL uses a stone baking sheet which always works - and it doesn't stick. If using a metal sheet, spray the sheet in advance).
Add toppings directly to uncooked dough.(I cook the veggies first in a fry pan like - garlic/ onion/ zucchini/ spinach/ sundried tomato. Sometimes to cook the crust first
THEN add toppings when there is 5 minutes left)
Cook all at 425 for 20 minutes.
