I've been checking out the local farmer's market most Saturday mornings after my Weight Watchers meeting. This past weekend I was buying zuchini when the farmer told me to try this squash, which he called 8 Ball Squash, a reference to its shape, no doubt.
So he talked me into it and I went home and prepared it according to his suggestion - a little salt, pepper, garlic, parmesan, and tossed on the grill. I don't have a real grill so George Foreman would have to do. George didn't quite give it the nice grill marks I was hoping for. It pretty much tasted like a regular old zuchini to me. So nothing exciting here. Just a fun shape. Which happened to be enough that day to get me to eat a veggie with my meal which might not have happened otherwise, so I guess that is good.

I am a sucker for cute vegetables and I love these!
Cool shape indeed! I could imagine squash in any form or color not being that 'wowing' to my tastebuds, lol, but definitely worth a try!
I love all squash!! I'll have to keep an eye for this one.

Its so dang hot now - I'm suffering. Need to get more veggies in the meals - and grilling is good. Too hot to cook inside.
