Foods for those that just don't care anymore

This is if you do still care...

 

Butternut squash.  Clean out the seeds, break down into a few manageable chunks (also makes it easier to seed), salt, seasonings, a bit of oil.  Slow roast at 275 for 45-60 minutes.  Let cool.  The skin can be cut off easily at this point.  Messy, what with the oil and all.

 

After that?  Measured amount of roasted squash, about 50% more liquid, by weight.  I use unsweetened almond milk.  Salt, sweetener (light touch to start), seasonings...tonight was five spice and cinnamon.  Puree til smooth;  I use my smoothie blender.  Then just heat over low heat to avoid burning, and covered to prevent splatter (and evaporation...the squash makes a thick emulsion by trapping the free water, so you don't have much spare liquid.)

 

Sooooo good.

 

Works with acorn squash, altho that's even milder than butternut, and pumpkin, preferably pie pumpkin. 

 

I love fall.  I wish I could get the array of fall seasonal beers that were around, 15-20 years ago, but...not available locally....
