One Pot Butternut Squash and Chorizo Casserole - Fab Food 4 All

I absolutely adore Cirio tomatoes and as long as they’re in the cupboard I never feel very far away from a really good meal. Unlike cheap tinned tomatoes the Cirio ones are grown in Italy and are just vastly superior in flavour, colour and texture, you really can’t go wrong with them!

So today I’m bringing you my One Pot Butternut Squash and Chorizo Casserole that I’ve been dying to share with you as the first time I made it I didn’t photograph it. So when Cirio got in touch and asked me to develop a recipe for them I knew I had to give this delicious dish it’s moment of glory!

The flavoursome Cirio chopped tomatoes form the perfect back drop to the butternut squash, chorizo, cumin, paprika and sherry flavours and bulgar wheat provides some lovely texture to the mix as well as absorbing lots of the lovely juices.

My family love this casserole for its flavour and I love it as it saves on washing up in the evening as it’s all cooked in the one pot. Served with some crusty bread or toast this really is a fabulous meal!One Pot Butternut Squash and Chorizo Casserole - Fab Food 4 All

If preparing a butternut squash puts you off cooking with them then the easiest way to prepare one is to slice off the to and bottom, prick it over with a fork and microwave for about 3 minutes on full power. Allow to cool and the skin will then glide off with a vegetable peeler and the flesh will be easier to cut too as it will be be slightly cooked.

    What makes this casserole is the use of good quality tomatoes, so much flavour
