I was recently reading a recipe for healthy mac and cheese and it called for butternut squash. It was too weird for words and I had to give it a try. I roasted a butternut squash scooped out the flesh and added it to the white sauce (using organic skim milk, butter and buckwheat flour). I then took out the submersion blender and pureed the mixture. I added the pre-cooked wholewheat pasta and voila you would not believe the taste. It is so creamy and satisfying. All the nutrition of the squash without the high fat, high sodium cheese.
Oh my - what have Darrell and Katie done to me!
