Hi everyone,
Just wondering if there are any threads about using up veg box ideas if that makes sense? I tired searching but couldnt find any.
We used to get an Abel and Cole box but yesterday went for a riverford one, it comes in Friday - have realised I've no idea what to do with some of the bits, especially red kabacha squash!
Thanks, x

No idea about previous threads, but kabocha squash can be used in the same recipes as butternut squash or pumpkin. It's a bit stronger and nuttier in flavour.0

Thank you - I was thinking it was along those lines but couldnt find what the difference was ... am going to try and make sure I have no wastage from the boxes like I used to have from A&C.0 -
Hi Lou,
This thread has a lot of queries on what to make with various seasonal veg:

As trish has said, use kabocha squash as you would other squashes. There are lots of recipes on these threads:
Spaghetti Squash, Butternut squash and other squashes
