Squash Loaf

I have collected a selection of squash recipes that we have found to be delicious and have made many times. Winter squash and sweet pumpkin are interchangeable in any recipe, since they are the same thing. No canned pumpkin will ever taste as good as the home grown vegetable. *Note: All spices are dried and ground. If you wish to use fresh, you will need to research the amount.
