The Only Way My Kids Will Eat Squash Without Complaining

One of the things I love about summer is our garden.  I love to get the soil ready, I love to plant it, and I love to eat all of the stuff we grow in it; unfortunately my kids do not share the same love as I do.  They like a few of the things that we grow, but none of them enjoy the squash. 

Over the years I have tried literally hundreds of recipes thinking surely this one they will like, but no matter how I cook it they do not like it.  This year I finally found one way to serve it that they will not complain about, a nice bribe.  I have told them if they just take some and eat it without complaining they can have a See's candy.  This worked.  They will take their allotted amount and quickly eat it without complaining to get a See's candy after dinner.  The only problem I have now is that I am out of See's and we don't have a store here in Lubbock, and we have a lot of squash still growing in the garden. 

Here is how we are eating our squash today, sliced sprinkled with salt, pepper, and garlic powder baked with mozzarella cheese and bacon bits on top.  I know they will complain, but such is life at our house!!!
