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.

Tips:
- For a creamy and smooth stew, use an immersion blender to blend the cooked vegetables until smooth before adding the coconut milk.
- If you don't have an immersion blender, you can also transfer the cooked vegetables to a regular blender in batches and blend until smooth. Just be careful not to overfill the blender, and use a towel to cover the lid while blending to prevent splatters.
- For a thicker stew, add more cornstarch or flour. Start with 1 tablespoon and add more as needed, until you reach the desired consistency.
- To make the stew ahead of time, cook the vegetables and potatoes according to the recipe, then let cool completely. Store the stew in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days, or in the freezer for up to 3 months. When you're ready to serve, reheat the stew over low heat until warmed through.
- Serve the stew with a side of crusty bread or rice, and a dollop of sour cream or yogurt.
Conclusion:
This slow cooker butternut squash and potato stew is a delicious and easy meal that's perfect for a cold night. The butternut squash and potatoes are cooked until tender, and the coconut milk adds a creamy and rich flavor. The stew is also packed with vegetables, making it a healthy and satisfying meal.
