7 Delicious Ways To Serve Butternut Squash ~ I think Mother Nature has had a plan all along. I certainly don’t think it’s any mistake that she made Butternut Squash slightly sweet, nutty, and bright orange. I think of it as more of a good mood food –– as the weather starts to cool and cloudy days begin to roll in. I think things like this are put here to remind us of bright and sunny days. I mean, how can you have a bad day when looking and eating such a glorious fruit? Eaten like a veggie, Butternut Squash can be served in numerous ways here are just a few of my favorite:
Fire up the Crockpot and make this hearty Kale, Butternut Squash, + White Bean Soup.
