I make a sweet Butternut Squash mash, but you can easily make it a much more savory dish. Below is a simple recipe for this yummy little gourd.
Butternut Squash Mash
1 Butternut Squash - I like to find a medium to large one
Butter to taste - for a med/lg I usually use 3-4 TBLS
Brown sugar to taste
1. Peel the Squash and cut into large chunks - scrape out the seeds when you find them.
2. Put in a large pot and cover with water. Bring to a boil and let cook until tender (easily pierced with a fork) - around 20minutes.
3. Pour off water and mash the squash until smooth. Add in butter and brown sugar as desired.
4. Transfer seasoned squash from the pot to the serving dish. Serve warm.
