Recipe: Roasted Butternut Squash with Garlic

We found this roasted squash and garlic recipe in a magazine and altered it to be more healthy – as we do!

All I have to say is “ah garlic!” We love it! We put it in almost everything we cook, in large quantities. We actually thought we used a lot of it until we went to Thailand and took some cooking classes there (yes we’ll share those recipes soon). Our teacher and host put about 12 cloves into one pot of soup. It was great!

Seriously – garlic has long been known for its healing qualities and was at one time thought to ward off not only vampires but the plague too. Cook this roasted squash in the afternoon and your house will smell so great when everyone gets home they won’t be able to keep their hands off it.

Recipe: Pumpkin Butternut Squash Curry Soup

The last of our pumpkin recipes for this year, this Pumpkin Butternut Squash Soup is just right for the cold weather as the ginger gives it a bit of a kick.

Butternut squash is a winter squash with a sweet nutty taste that can be steamed, roasted, pureed or mashed and used in any type of recipe.

This curry soup recipe uses pumpkin Rob and I bought just before Halloween along with the usual Thai flavorings, coconut milk, lemongrass and ginger.
