People talking
This is so easy and taste just like lemon pie. I gave my neighbor some squash and she in return gave me this recipe. I made it and my dh loved it. One large yellow squash is enough for two pies. The first time I made it, I used 1 teaspoon orange extract because I did'nt have lemon and I added fresh lemon juice to it. Tasted just like lemon pie! I wish I could give this 5 stars!!! Well really, I do!

Very good pie and great to have this recipie to use up a bumper crop of squash!

First, this is a very sweet pie. Although it's good, it's not a tart lemon, so if you're wanting that, add some grated lemon zest. Second, it's better served cold. It's edible room temperature, but better served cold. Third, a few adjustments I'll make next time. The squash should be FINELY grated. I used a cheese grater and it was too large. (Use a food processor to get a fine grate.) It didn't taste bad, but the texture wasn't as smooth as it should have been. Also, let the squash drain a bit before adding to the mix. I added 1.5 cups of squash (like another reviewer tried) and it did turn out very custard-like. Overall, this is a very nice recipe.
