Butternut squash and potatoes are two fall vegetables that are perfect for slow cooking. Their hearty flavors and textures stand up well to long cooking times, and they absorb the flavors of the herbs and spices that you add. Rosemary is a classic herb that pairs well with both butternut squash and potatoes, and it adds a lovely aroma to the dish. This recipe is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. You can add other vegetables, such as carrots or parsnips, or you can use different herbs and spices.

BUTTERNUT SQUASH AND POTATOES WITH ROSEMARY (SLOW COOKER)
From the Italian Slow Cooker by Michele Scicolone. It's wonderful to be able to use the slow cooker to make side dishes, especially on those occasions when the oven is engaged by the main event. You cannot go wrong with butternut squash, potatoes and rosemary. While this appears in an Italian cookbook, the ingredients are very familiar to North Americans, as well.
