EXPERT TIPS

Expert Tips

Cut winter squash, such as the butternut in this recipe, with a sharp knife, then remove the seeds with a spoon. Peel away the tough skin with a vegetable peeler or paring knife.

Butternut squash, rich in color, is an excellent source of vitamin A.

A tossed green salad dressed with a splash of balsamic vinaigrette and crusty French rolls complete this slow-cooked meal. Low-fat frozen yogurt adds a cool, tangy ending.

This is a very hearty delicious meal. I made it once before and I decided to try it again and it's just delicious. I used all the same items in the recipe listed, but added one more can of the tomatoes. And like one of the reviews below, no need to add extra seasonings which is great! I hadn't made it for a long time because of the peeling and cutting of that hard butternut squash, but I microwaved it for 3 min to make it more soft and then used a potato peeler on the outside. So that made it alot easier for me. I will use this recipe again very soon.
