When you have extra squash try making this wonderful Squash Cobbler topped with biscuits. Everyone loves a cobbler!
We now have more squash than we know what to do with. I love it just steamed in the microwave, but that’s not my family’s preference. So to try to get them to give squash a try, I made it into a cobbler with my favorite biscuit recipe on top. Everyone loves a cobbler even when there are vegetables underneath instead of fruit. My gang gave it a try and actually liked it. I liked mixing some onions with the squash, and who can pass up biscuits. Make sure you cook it long enough for the biscuits in the center to be cooked through, you don’t want them to be doughy.
