Notes
- I prefer to cook the butternut squash directly in the insert to avoid washing up, but feel free to place on a trivet if you prefer.
- One serving contains 0 (zero!) Freestyle SmartPoints.

- If you'd like, add some seasoning to the butternut squash in the instant pot before pressure cooking.
- Butternut squash mash can be a little bit watery. To reduce this, mash it, make a hole in the middle and then let it stand. The excess water will form in the middle and you can use paper towels to soak it up.
