There are so many ways it may be
disguised and yet make a tempting
and appetizing dish.
If you are unusually fond of this
Lou bearing vegetable, it may even
be canned and will roake a tempting
and colorful dish for the winter table,

There are many epicurean dishes to
be made from summer squash. Stuffed
