Description
Butternut is a type of winter squash belonging to the walnut family that grows on a vine. It has a sweet, nutty taste similar to that of a pumpkin. It has tan-yellow skin and orange fleshy pulp with a compartment of seeds in the blossom end. Like other orange-colored fruits and vegetables, butternut squash is full of beta-carotene and alpha-carotene. Your body converts them to vitamin A, which is important for your immune system. Butternut is a great hydrator because one serving of butternut squash is roughly 87% water, which can help keep you hydrated.
