Butternut Squash ~ Not just a table decoration


Have you ever saw the Butternut squash at the grocery and wondered  “What do I do with it?” I did, then I found a recipe and tried it,   now  it  is one of my favorite foods.
   Butternut Squash has a sweet nutty flavor similar to a Pumpkin. The squash can be stored longer that summer squashes because their skin is so hard and thick. Store in a cool dry place for at least a month.
