Squash - Butternut - Medium

Butternut squash is a fruit that can be roasted, toasted, or pureed for soups, casseroles, breads, and muffins. All squashes provide vitamin A and vitamin C, some of the B vitamins, and are a good source of fibre. They are also rich in carotenoids. The darker the flesh of the squash the higher the concentration of beta-carotene.

Squash - Kabocha - Orange

This anti-inflammatory food is bursting with nutrition. It’s full of beta carotene, iron, vitamins A, C, fiber and some B vitamins. And it’s got 40 calories per cup AND less than half the carbs of most other squash (about 7 grams per cup). If you are new to Kabocha it’s similar to pumpkin or acorn squash, but even better because it’s even sweeter and has the perfect fluffy interior. One of the best parts is you can eat the think skin of this squash so no need to deal with peeling it!
