Yes! It’s another winter squash post and I’m ok with the fact that you may be rolling your eyes a wee bit. Butternut squash is just such a nutritious and wonderful vegetable that I can’t help myself, especially during the Holidays. One of the best things about butternut squash is that it is a veggie [...]
From Fall right on through Winter, winter squash in all its many glorious varieties, makes its appearance on our dinner tables and the encores follow. Sweet potatoes also are a staple of the seasons and holidays. For babies, sweet potatoes and winter squash such as butternut and acorn are two of the first foods we [...]
One of the tastiest and most nutritious first foods that you can feed to your baby is winter squash. Just 1 cup of baked butternut winter squash has an average of 28mg of calcium and 22868 IU of Vitamin A – Now that’s a lotta nutrients! For my winter meals, the more squash the better [...]
Thanksgiving is almost here in the U.S. and that means that dining tables all over the country will be laden with copious amounts of delicious delectable foods of all types. For me, it’s all about the sausage apple stuffing, the roasted winter squash and the rich homemade gravy from the turkey pan drippings. I would [...]
Last night I had one little butternut in the bin, hardly enough to bake up as a side dish. I also had a Macintosh apple sitting on the counter that I pulled from the crisper because it was a bit bruised. My intention was to make parsnip and carrot fritters but instead, I made use [...]
So I can’t post a picture because, well to be honest, there was nothing to photograph once I was finished *sheepish grin* This is the trouble with some recipes, you just have to learn to control yourself and stop sampling because you may turn around and find your creation gone, poof, vanished straight into the belly of [...]
I have been trying to get a batch of butternut squash and apple soup made for, oh about a week now. For the last 3 weeks, my poor family (myself included) has been hit with the flu and other various and sundry Fall/Winter sickies. It’s been a tough November so far and I think once [...]
Many people write to ask about the hard bits and strings in their butternut, acorn or pumpkin puree. You may find these annoying things in your puree if you have scraped the meat too close to the shell. When scraping out the meat, try not to get too close to the shell. I hope that [...]

Butternut Squash Soup 8 months+ due to spices On a cold, wet rainy day there’s nothing as good as a nice warm soup with a nice loaf of hot crusty bread. With Fall just around the corner (you can smell it in the air!) a butternut squash soup is just the thing to warm [...]
Favorite varieties of winter squash for baby food are the Acorn and the Butternut. These are the best choices for baby’s first squash experiences. These types of squash are great even if you start solids early at 4 months. While technically a winter squash, we think of it as a Fall squash as we begin [...]
This soup is delicious and makes a great “meal” for your little one. It can be served to older kids in a yummy bread bowl. I have added chicken (shredded) and pork tenderloin (shredded) a few times to make a more hearty meal. You can pour a bit over cooked rice or over small pasta [...]
