Tonight is the start of Passover, and this year is the first year that I am not making the Seder in my home but am invited to friends. Of course, I am bringing a little something to my friends for dinner tonight as a little side dish. Actually I kind of have bring something, because both my husband and I are vegetarian and I want to make sure that there will be something for us to eat, since we are invited by our hosts that are meat eaters.

Here is a dish that can be eaten all year round and is not exclusive to Passover… Butternut Squash. It is always a satisfying meal, because it’s so filling with it’s creamy texture and nutty taste. This dish is always a big hit when I make it because it’s that perfect combination of sweet and spicy with just the right amount of spice that adds a subtle hint of flavor.

I have to thank my sister in law Janine Solarsh from Johannesburg for sharing this with me enabling me to bring this across continents to share with you all.
