Patty Pan Squash Recipes

I usually get a few questions about our produce each season in the form of "What can I do with it?"  So, since our plants have produced a super-abundance of patty pan squash  (aka scalloped squash) I thought I would give out some ideas.  Here are few ideas to try this fun oddity of the produce world to get the creative cooking flowing.

Stuffed with cheese and bacon:  http://allrecipes.com/recipe/39304/stuffed-pattypan-squash/
Stuffed with veggies and pecans:   http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/
Stuffed with rice and spinach:  http://southernfood.about.com/od/summersquash/r/r90708a.htm
OK you get the idea with stuffed.
How about grilled with salsa verde:  http://cooking.nytimes.com/recipes/12632-grilled-or-roasted-pattypan
Grilled with Indian spice:  http://www.myrecipes.com/recipe/indian-spiced-grilled-baby-squash
You can also saute'
Sauted with basil and feta:  http://www.myrecipes.com/recipe/sauted-baby-squash-with-basil-feta
or fried:  http://www.newlyweds-blog.com/2010/06/15/fried-patty-pan-squash/
and lastly you can always bake them or turn them into soup.
