This winter squash gets darker orange in color and sweeter as it ripens in the cold winter weather. You can roast, steam, or puree it for the perfect starch with your meal. That rich orange color is from the beta-carotene (vitamin A), an antioxidant to help build up immunity, which we all need especially this time of year. Butternut squash makes a great starch for your meal if you're trying to cut calories: 1 cup has about 60 calories versus potatoes which have over twice that.
