Moroccan Butternut Squash Stew

Moroccan Butternut Squash Stew

About the Recipe

This Moroccan Butternut Squash Stew could also work wonders in a slow cooker!
I would still follow step 1 and sauté the onions, zucchini, garlic and chili powder to pull out some good flavors and then dump everything into the stock pot.
However, you could skip that, chuck everything in there from the start, cook on low for 7-8 hours (or on high for 3-4 hours if you start late) and have that AMAZING aroma fill your house all day.
Not a bad idea yeah?? So. Now you have no excuse. Plus, you’ll LOVE this stew. Trust me   🙂
