As mention in my post ” Another Tasty Vegetable Suitable in Hypoglycemia Diets“ here it is! Why not give it a try. I actually went as far as trying the same recipe with a buttnut squash and it was just as tasty.

- Parboil the whole baby marrows for a few minutes, then cut them in half lengthwise.
- Scoop out the seeds and flesh – set the skins to one side, chop the flesh and set aside.
