This simple butternut squash recipe is pure comfort food in a dish. Sliced, roasted and filled with Camembert cheese, this is a healthy version of baked potato with cheese!
Pretty as a picture.
This looks and tastes delicious! The sweetness of the butternut squash and the creamy Camembert goes so well with the garlic bringing together these two for a perfect combination. It looks impressive but is so easy to make. The whole dish, including the skin can be munched too. Kinda like a baked potato when you wolfed down the crispy skin. Wow your friends at dinner/supper/Thanksgiving/any other holiday/Come Dine With Me/family gathering/trying to impress the in-laws etc...!
