Arabian Squash – Cheese Casserole
A little fiddly (in the cutting mainly) but these are a fantastically healthy tasty snack. Great for taking to work, school lunch boxes or munching with drinks. Leave out the cinnamon if you’re not a fan. Once baked and cooled they will store for several days in an air tight container….if you can manage to keep them that long!
