Jill, I have one good sized crookneck squash. I'm planning on cooking
it up and mashing it. Then I will spoon it into muffin tins and freeze.
Once froze, I'll put the squash muffins into a ziploc bag to be used
later. I find the muffin tin size is just perfect for individual
servings. I do the same with rutabagas. I've used cubes of squash and
ratabagas in soups too.
