We are certainly having a very cold winter this year. The good part is, we can indulge in all the lovely winter foods that are filled with goodness.
This humble vegetable - the delicious butternut - is filled with fibre, essential vitamins A,B, C, E and also minerals such as calcium, magnesium and zinc. With a touch of spice, some fresh crispy French bread and you can eat the winter blues away.
