"I feel like I'm really gonna chop my hand off or something here. That would be not good, at all," she then said before getting her chopping form down and ultimately getting the squash cut in half.

She then put together a sauce that involved cottage cheese and tomatoes, and added ground beef to what she would be putting inside of her chopped squash. As she puts the finished product together, fans couldn't help but notice Drake making a cameo in the video's background.

While the finished product didn't look very aesthetically pleasing, Maye's skill as a chef likely ensured it was worth her energy.
