Introducing the Striped Delight: Stripetti Squash! This funky fusion of a zucchini and spaghetti squash is Mother Nature's playful twist on your usual veggie lineup. When cooked, Stripetti squash has a tender, soft texture and a sweet, nutty flavor similar to sweet potatoes. This relatively new variety is popular for its soft flesh, which can be shredded into noodle-like strands, making it a great pasta substitute. Once sliced and seeded, the squash can be roasted, microwaved, or boiled to soften the flesh. The resulting strands can be used in place of pasta, tossed with cheese, herbs, or sauces, or chilled for use in salads, grain bowls, or roasted like other hard squash varieties. High in vitamins A, B6, and B12, potassium, beta-carotene, and folate. Good source of vitamin C, calcium, manganese, vitamin K, iron, magnesium, and dietary fiber.
