todays color is orange

        We've all been told to eat the color of the rainbow. So, today's color for dinner is orange and no its not carrots. It's squash! I love squash, especially acorn and butternut squash. Here is my recipe for butternut squash.

 SIMPLE BUTTERNUT SQUASH

  

1 butternut squash

butter to taste

salt to taste

optional cinnamon and brown sugar

            - Cut the squash in half length wise.Scoop out seeds. Fill a 9x13 pan 1/4 with water. Place squash in pan with water skin side up. Cook in oven on 350 until you can put a fork thur it easily. (About 45 min's to 1 hour. Depends on how big your squash is.)

            - When squash is done, I scrape the squash out of the shell. I mash it like mash potatoes. Then add the butter and salt. Sometimes when I want it to be a little sweet I'll add cinnamon or brown sugar. Its all good!

                  Try something orange today and maybe tomorrow too!
