Look beyond butternut squash\u2019s intimidating hard skin, and you\u2019ll find a bright orange flesh, buttery texture and slightly sweet, nutty flavor \u2014 with so many meal possibilities! Why should you make butternut squash your go-to ingredient for fall and winter meals?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1. It\u2019s a nutritional ingredient with taste, texture and autumn nostalgia.
Butternut squash is one of the season\u2019s all-star ingredients for good reason. It satisfies as the headlining ingredient in recipes like the always-popular Classic Butternut Squash Soup, adds flavor to salads, lends creaminess to rice dishes, and offers sweetness to desserts like Butternut Custard Pecan Pie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Plus, try winter squash like butternut in place of potato sometimes and you\u2019ll get a rich source of vitamins A and C plus small amounts of a variety of mineral nutrients.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. It\u2019s got versatile flavor that will pair beautifully with almost anything.
Like other winter squash, butternut squash pairs well with a variety of flavors from cinnamon and cumin to coconut oil and toasted nuts, making it a versatile choice for weekday meals and celebrations too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3. It\u2019s easy to store, and lasts longer than you might think.
Butternut squash can be stored at room temperature in a cool, dry place for a month or more. After cutting, store it in an airtight container or wrap tightly and refrigerate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

4. It\u2019s easy to cut and prepare…really!
Don\u2019t be daunted by its rock-hard surface! We can help with this how-to guide for cutting butternut, acorn and spaghetti squash.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

5. It\u2019s a prime candidate for roasting, which makes for great make-ahead meal planning.
Its dense flesh caramelizes well, taking on deep sweetness and nuttiness. It doesn\u2019t get more straightforward than this no-prep Easiest Whole Roasted Winter Squash recipe \u2014 plunk the whole squash on a baking sheet and roast until tender. Once roasted, serve as-is, or spoon into gratins, casseroles, winter salads and stews. Or you can pur\u00e9e in a food processor until smooth to make soups, risottos, dips and spreads, or baked goods.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With their unusual shapes and varied colors, winter squash \u2014 including acorn, spaghetti and butternut squash \u2014 make beautiful table decorations. Nothing pretties up a place like a small bunch of squash and pumpkins on the table, especially when today\u2019s decor becomes tomorrow\u2019s dish.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
