About Squash
Squash is a versatile vegetable that comes in a variety of types, including zucchini, butternut, and acorn squash. Originating from the Americas, squash has been a staple in Indigenous cuisines for centuries. It is rich in vitamins A and C, which support skin health and immunity, as well as potassium, which aids in maintaining healthy blood pressure. Squash is low in calories and high in fiber, making it a great choice for digestion and weight management. It contains antioxidants that combat inflammation and promote overall health. While typically healthy, some preparations—like frying or adding excess sugar in dishes—can increase calories and fat. Squash can be enjoyed roasted, sautéed, or pureed in soups and works beautifully in both savory and sweet recipes, making it an essential addition to a balanced diet.
