butternut squi-zash.

not just a Fall favorite round here.

we enjoy it all year round, and if you’re tired of sweet potatoes, you just found your swap!

i’ve made butternut squash fries for our burgers before, and i will be using my air fryer instead of the oven on the next go round!

it’s also great roasted and tossed with fresh greens, raisins, and toasted pecans.

why do we enjoy it often? i’m glad you asked😏.

✔️excellent source of vitamin C

✔️thiamin

✔️niacin

✔️vitamin B-6

✔️folate

✔️manganese

these nutrients play a significant part in keeping your bones strong and protect against osteoporosis.

just 1 cup of cubed butternut squash provides 16g carbs, 582mg of potassium (more than a 🍌), and almost 7g of fiber! it’s super low in fat, great for eye health, and exceptionally heart friendly❤️.
