So rich, creamy and delicious! After mixing the ingredients I like to return it back to the squash and cook it inside so it brings out even more flavors. We like to make the dish at least once a month, especially during the summer months where we have a lot of squash that is growing in our garden. If you make any of our recipes, please do post a photo of your dish and use the hashtag #OhDip we would love to see what everyone is doing with our recipes.
