From Butternut to Banana, Spaghetti to Acorn, winter squash is a great source of complex vegetable carbohydrates and dietary fiber. These versatile favorites provide vitamin C as well as iron and beta-carotene. All winter squash have hard shells, which account for a shelf life of up to six months, and the flesh has a mildly sweet flavor and fine texture.
Did You Know?
The darker the skin, the higher the beta-carotene content.
