Am always on the look out for healthy dishes can make on the weekend for DH and myself to pack in our lunches and this sure fit's the bill. Made this morning and of course could not pack it up with a taste testing it hee hee. We not only enjoyed how healthy it is but also the spice combo that was flavorful with out being over powering. Made using a 2 1/2 pound butternut squash and a 10 ounce bag of fresh spinach. Have never seen and did not know what masel stock cube was so used two chicken stock envelopes. Ok now I am looking forward to tomorrows lunch. Thanks for the post.
