Categories     Cheese

Time 45m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

4 cups butternut squash, cubed
2 (3/4 ounce) wedges Laughing Cow light swiss cheese, room temperature (2 of the wedges)
3/4 cup onion, diced
1/4 cup fat free egg substitute (like Egg Beaters Original)
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon chili powder
1/8 teaspoon pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Place squash in large microwave-safe bowl with 1/4 cup of water. Cover and microwave for 6 minutes. Once cool enough to handle, uncover and drain water. Set aside.
  • Place onions in a small microwave-safe dish with 2 tablespoons water. Cover and microwave for 3 minutes. Once cool enough to handle, uncover and drain any excess water. Set aside.
  • Place squash and all other ingredients except for the onions in a blender. (Make sure squash cubes are not still piping hot.) Pulse until thoroughly mixed (but not liquefied). Remove blender from the base, and then stir in the onions.
  • Transfer squash mixture to a small casserole dish sprayed with nonstick spray. Place in the oven, and bake for 35 - 40 minutes (until edges begin to brown). Then serve with a spoon as you would mashed potatoes! Enjoy!
