Jacket Squash.

Oh my..! I am a happy person right now. This week I have discovered something perfect for my healthy lifestyle- I LOVE BUTTERNUT SQUASH!

Yeh, so what?! You say. Well let me explain- it tastes and feels just like potato! I have found my potato swap fix! 

Let's think about this seriously, this week I bought one large squash and it has supplied 9 meals! I have cut and roast potato styled it, I have had it roasted with chilli in my winter veg mix and last night I not only made a jacket squash, I also put it into a frittata!! 

This little squash can feed an army! Everyone seriously needs to try this! I am going to be cooking with it all of the time now! 

Even better- the squash is filled with amazing anti oxidants, minerals, vitamins, protein, fibre and mono-unsaturated fatty acids that are good for heart health! - SO GET EATING IT! :)





Quick, easy, cheap, healthy, tasty, nutritious, child friendly etc etc!
