Garlic Squash Noodles

not at all like the real thing, but a pleasant substitute

If you’re a grain-free family, squash noodles are a handy thing to have in your repetoire.

Creamy Delicata Squash & Turnip Mash

I ate it cold the next day. Hubs was horrified (and kinda impressed)

When I made this mash I was listening to this, so it’s possible the warm fuzzies I got while eating it are partly Stevie Wonder-related.

Pumpkin, Basil & Chive Salad

eat warm or cold, it’s delicious either way

“You have to watch out for the Pant Her.”

Coconut & Squash Soup

it’s hard to make soup look exciting. You’ll just have to take my word for it…

Although squash soups are typically more of a winter thing, I’ve converted this one into something lighter and more summery.

Spaghetti Pie

don’t be fooled by this dainty piece. I ate two of them.

Spaghetti Pie?! What manner of beast is this?

Butternut & Chickpea Curry

so aromatic the neighbours were probably drooling

When you’ve made as many curries as I have, they become a kind of slapdash ‘chuck everything in the pan’ meal.

Curried Parsnip & Squash Soup

that’s chopped coriander/cilantro on top, in case you were wondering

I tried writing this post while simultaneously talking on the phone and emailing my mother.

Fennel & Parsley Stuffed Butternut Squash

it’s possible I got a little too enthusiastic with the parsley garnish

Wow, squash season came around quickly, eh?!

Bacon Bolognaise

the ultimate in ‘faux’ pasta

We don’t eat conventional pasta, but every time I buy the gluten-free stuff (which is usually rice or quinoa based), hubs tells me that it’s just not worth doing and we should forget about pasta all together.

Butternut Squash Chips

fry any starchy veg and you’re guaranteed a good time

When I say ‘chips’ here, I really mean ‘crisps’ – as in the little strips of (usually) potato that come in a packet and are deliciously more-ish.
