Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees
  • Place the butternut squash, inside up, potatoes, 3 cloves of garlic, and 3 sprigs of rosemary on a lined sheet tray. Use a fork to puncture the golden potatoes 2-3 times each.
  • Drizzle the squash with olive oil and sprinkle the salt and pepper on it.
  • Bake for 1 hour until the squash and potatoes are tender when pierced with a fork.
  • Remove from the oven and let it cool for 15 minutes, or until cool enough to handle with your hands. Slice the potatoes open in half to help them cool.
  • Add the Greek yogurt, remaining garlic, and remaining rosemary to a food processor or high speed blender. Use a spoon to scoop out the insides of the squash and potatoes and place them in the blender or food processor with the other ingredients.
  • Blend on high for 1 to 2 minutes, until smooth and creamy. Enjoy!
