 Creamy Supreme - 80 calories

This dish is great for a cold winter day, but the way my roomate and I keep our apartment, it feels like winter all year round! The creaminess of the squash mixed with the sweetness of the raisins satisfies all tastebuds...and then the cherry on the cake, the pumpkin spice.

Ingredients:

1)1/2 cup butternut squash mashed (I prefer Cascadian Farms...it comes frozen and all you have to do is heat it up!) - 50cals

2) 1 Tbsp Raisins - 30cals

3) 1/2 Tbsp Pumpkin Spice - zero cals

4) dash of salt- zero cals

                                          Preparation:

Place squash in microwave safe bowl with the raisins and salt and heat for 3 minutes. Add pumpkin spice and voila!
