Where does the time go??  Here's my new favorite Fall recipe. I used to only make it using brown sugar and cinnamon. Butternut Squash Puree Peel and seed a butternut squash and cut into cubes.  Place cubes on a cookie sheet; spray with olive oil Pam and sprinkle with kosher salt, cracked pepper, and dried oregano.  Place an unpeeled clove of garlic on the pan with the cubed squash (1 clove/pound of squash).  Roast at 400 degrees until soft (approximately 20-30 minutes).

Place squash into a mixing bowl.  Squeeze the garlic over the squash.  Mash together.  Spray with I Can't Believe It's Not Butter.  Mix with an electric mixer until smooth adding fat-free creamer or milk or cream or half and half until it's the consistency of whipped potatoes.

A 1 pound squash will make about 1 1/2 cups of puree.
