Recipe: Orange & Green Goodness

 Eat your colors!

Today's color is Orange (with a touch of green)
Butternut Squash
Mandarin Orange
with Basil and Mint Leaves.

As Fall's bounty comes to and end, we can still eat squashes 'cos these babies usually hold out for a bit; you can store them for a while and still enjoy them long after everything else is gone.
To make:
>Throw the whole squash into the oven on baking tray (or if it's not to hard you can cut it in two first and take out seeds). Once roasted cut out cubes of the meat & throw into a bowl.
>Peel and separate mandarin sections, throw into the bowl.
>Add fresh mint and basil leaves
>Add a like bit of olive oil, salt and black pepper.
>Toss
>Yum!
