Butternut Squash Casserole Recipe
Recipe Ingredients
2 1/2 lb butternut squash (up to 5 lb)
1 carrot (2 if use more squash)
1 cup rolled oats (uncooked oatmeal)
12 oz green peas
1 tbsp butter
2 eggs, beaten frothy
1 pinch salt
5 tbsp cinnamon sugar (or less)
1/2 tsp vanilla
Recipe Preparation
Boil squash and carrot together until the carrot is tender. Allow
both to cool. Slide skin off carrot. Being careful with squash,
remove its seeds and peel. Blend carrots and squash together. Don't
over-blend: preserve some texture. Add cinnamon sugar and salt to
taste.
Add frothy eggs to carrot/squash mixture. Grease an 8-inch loaf pan.
Coat the grease with oatmeal. Mix about 1/2 cup oatmeal into
casserole. Gently fold in green peas, then put mixture in casserole
pan. Sprinkle remaining oatmeal on top and dot with butter. Bake at
350 degrees F. 30 to 40 minutes until brown on top. Once cooked, it
can be served immediately or frozen for later consumption.
NOTES:
* Butternut squash and carrot casserole -- A delicious Thanksgiving
or Christmas casserole. My mother makes this at the holidays. I
don't know where she originally got the recipe. Yield: Serves 10.
* Cinnamon sugar is a mixture of sugar and powdered cinnamon.
Commercial cinnamon sugar mixtures are mostly sugar. My mom prepares
her own mixture with the emphasis decidedly on the cinnamon.

: Time: 40 minutes preparation, 40 minutes cooking.
: Precision: approximate measurement OK.

Food Tips of the Week
Diet hints and tipsIn deciding on a diet, it is essential to attempt to lower your consumption of fat, salt and refined carbohydrates.
Some reduced carb diet guidlines:
* Use splenda as a substitute for sugar. Many recipes that require sugar can be changed to make use of a sugar replacement instead. It is not exactly the same so you will have to do a bit of trial and error and it might not work for everything, but it gives very good results for the most part.
* Use soy flour or soy baking mix. When you require flour for baked goods, repalce it with soy flour or a baking mix such as Atkins soya baking mix. In many cases, you can convert your best loved recipes that use normal wheat flour to use these.
