Butternut Squash is a type of winter squash.  It has a sweet, nutty taste similar to a pumpkin.  It has a yellow skin with an orange fleshy pulp.  When ripe, it turns increasingly deep orange, and becomes sweeter and richer in flavor.  Butternut squash is composed of many vital poly-phenolic anti-oxidants and vitamins.  As in other Cucurbitaceae members, butternut squash is low in calories; 100 grams provide only 45 calories.  It contains no saturated fats or cholesterol; however, it is a rich source of dietary fiber and phyto-nutrients.  Butternut squash is a common recommendation (from dietitians) to control cholesterol.
