Rachael Ray: Butternut Squash Mac and Cheese
This Rachael Ray recipe I think Rachael Ray makes for her dog. We have a dog, but he does not get to eat people food. That is something I don’t want to start with him, he’s mostly an outdoor dog, so no sitting under the table for him waiting for food. I have never worked with Butternut Squash, but I couldn’t find a box of Butternut Squash at 2 grocery stores. I looked it up and supposedly it is a seasonal vegetable. I bought a fresh one. My mom told me they are hard to work with, she was right. She suggested I microwaved it, so I did, then I cut the skin off and pureed it. I assumed it was to be purred since the sauce was supposed to be smooth. Overall, this mac and cheese was excellent! The little guy loved it!
