Patty Pan Squash for Squash Haters

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
Wash patty pan squash.
Place squash in pot of boiling water; cover and let boil for 30 minutes. Set aside to cool.
Fry bacon until crisp; drain on paper towel.
When squash is cool enough to handle, cut off the top; scoop out and discard seeds.
With a knife, remove the flesh of the squash, leaving about a 1/2 inch thickness to shell.
Cut squash flesh into bite-sized pieces.
Saute for 5 minutes over medium-high heat: olive oil, bite-sized pieces of squash, onion, basil, salt and pepper. Remove from heat; stir in the crumbled bacon.
Spoon mixture into patty pan shell.
Bake on baking sheet for 40 – 50 minutes.
