  • ½ teaspoon salt (plus extra to taste)
  • ¼ teaspoon ground ginger

  • 2 cups butternut squash, cubed
  • Black pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Base:
    Heat the olive oil in a large, deep skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped onions and sauté for about 8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they become soft and translucent. Toss in the minced garlic and cook for another minute. Transfer this mixture to your slow cooker.
