We all tend to veer away from squash like butternut or spaghetti because they're hard to cut. Try this tip to easily chop and peel your squash: make several large slits through the skin with the tip of a sharp knife. Microwave the squash on high for 3-5 minutes to soften the skin. Remove squash from the microwave and let it rest until it's cool enough to handle.
