WINTER SQUASH BREAD
Winter Squash Facts: Winter squashes are an excellent source of vitamins A and C, potassium and manganese, calcium, magnesium, Vitamin E, Thiamin, Niacin, Vitamin B6, and Folate. Squash is also high in fiber so it may help give you the sensation of feeling full, without having consumed a lot of calories.
