1 large butternut squash peeled and cut into small chunks ( butternut can be peeled with a potato peeler, I cut mine in half first, take out the seeds and peel.)
2 large onions quartered and cut into wedges
4 garlic cloves - I take my garlic that we harvest and peel the cloves and put into jars of olive oil & then keep in the refrigerator. When I need to sautee, it's easy to get garlic and olive oil just by spooning out a couple cloves with the oil.
olive oil
1 pkg frozen green beans
2 tsp freeze dried basil
salt
pepper
1/2 c water
(I always add some fresh ground nutmeg to all my butternut) optional.
Heat the oil and garlic in pan. Add the onion, then the butternut, green beans, 1/2 c water and basil, salt and pepper. Cover and reduce the heat to med low until you can stick a fork in the squash and it is tender. About 20 minutes.
Food is comforting. We have to eat to live and so why not play with recipes and see what you can come up with. I think we have all spotted a good recipe and maybe didn't have all the ingredients or thought of a substitute that would taste just as good. I love to experiment and my guys are eager to taste!
