Yep you can just chop squash and roast it - some people like to remove the skin but it all depends on taste. I love it roasted with sweet potatoes and carrots.

How do you actually cook squash, is it something you can chop up and roast? I need to change from aubergines and peppers to something more seasonal.
I love Nigella Lawson's recipe for roast sweet potato and butternut squash soup!

DD's hit the sales - they didn't spend much, funny how much less they're willing to spend when it's out of their christmas money
DH and I have been going through the budget with a fine tooth comb, once we know what he'll be getting via ESA then we'll be able to do the final tally but it's looking like we should get away without going onto a dmp...fingers crossed.
I've reogranised the freezer - packed up all the cold meats that were left and I've got enough food for 31 main meals - a selection of party picky bits for new years eve and enough pasta/sauces to take it up to 42 meals :T.
Have just whizzed up all the leftover veggies in the fridge and made 14 burger sized bubble and squeak style cakey things which are cooking as we speak....some for tonight - some for the freezer....shall be served with oddments of salami, salad, cheese and bread.
I've made a complete list of everyone I need to buy for next year and set a limit, going to aim for a money neutral year in that respect and hope to cover most of it with vouchers/ebay/quidco.
I feel quite organised.....
Ohhh and I did the ironing.
Wow - how did you make the cakey things? I was just about to throw out left over veg - could make soup but these sound interesting?
I did all my ironing yesterday too! Today I have done nothing but have a nice bath - had my feet pampered by other half and now sitting in my new fluffy dressing gown drinking champagne and eating chocolate orange!
Oh I have redone my budget but I haven't started my assignment - Due in ion the 15th Jan!:eek: Been far to busy catching up with threads on here and trying to motivate myself to get debt free once and for all this year!!0 -
