SQUASH CALABAZA

A round pumpkin-shaped squash that is found in a variety of sizes ranging from a few inches in diameter, similar to a small cantaloupe up to two feet. The skin color ranges from green to light tan and orange, covering a firm golden orange flesh that is slightly firmer than the flesh of a pumpkin. With a sweet mild flavor like acorn squash, the Calabaza can be prepared just like other squash varieties such as acorn and butternut.
