Mmmmm, lovely butternut squash...

Right then :

1. Peal the squash - if you have sensitive skin, I suggest you wear rubber gloves! For some reason, my hands get sore if I don't!!
2. Cut in half down the middle, then cut so that you can remove the pips and the mushy bit where they are.
3. Cut the rest into cubes and boil for about 15 mins or until its soft
4. Drain and puree and away you go!!!

Ella loves butternut squash, as do I - I make it into soup!!!!

Let me know how you get on!!

I saw your hands in the chemist and they looked sore!!! LOL!!!

When you've pealed a few, its worrying what it does to the gloves, let alone skin!!!
