I used the electric pressure cooker for the beans. And then cooked it all in the same pot using slow cooker method. I also added about another cup or two of water.

Ronnie – you can microwave, boil, bake or slow cook a whole squash and then mash the cooked flesh. You can also buy canned butternut squash at many groceries and whole foods stores.

Here’s some detailed instructions on different methods here: https://www.scjohnson.com/en/family/family-economics/post.aspx?date=10-11-30&title=Five-Ways-to-Cook-Butternut-Squash

Opps – sorry about that. I’ll email Susan to update it too.

Overnight can be 8 – 9 hours on low.

In the morning cook on low for 8 – 10 hours.

How long do you cook everything once you’ve added the squash, garlic, tomatoes and spices in the morning?

Recipe says to add the other ingredients in the morning – do you cook it some more after that? Sounds like it should cook at least a bit more

This sounds great, but I’m confused — you cook the beans overnight, but do you continue cooking it the next day after adding the veggies and spices?
