I have never eaten a butternut squash before (I know that sounds crazy) so last week I bought one & decided to grill it. I forgot I was supposed to par boil it first but it turned out YUMMY just the same. To me it was like dessert although I didnt put any butter/sugar or anything on it after I grilled it w/EVOO & kosher salt. Tonight I prepared another one but this time I cut it into bite size pieces, used a zero calorie coconut oil spray to coat them, kosher salt, black pepper, a tiny bit of brown sugar & cinnamon & baked it. IT WAS YUMMY TOO!!! I had a grilled chicken breast, baked sweet potato, butternut squash & nuked an ear of corn on the cob (microwave for 4 1/2 min. in the shuck) & the silks slipped right out. Everything was so good it was like having FOUR DESSERTS & ONLY 515 calories. I think I need to have this once a week at least!! ;-)
