 The best flavours of fall come together in this low carb butternut squash casserole.  A perfect Thanksgiving side dish. 

Butternut Squash and Cauliflower Casserole

I’m immensely pleased with myself at the moment.  Not just because this is a delicious low carb casserole recipe that I am excited to share with you.  And not just because I am ahead of the game here and bringing you a great Thanksgiving side dish with plenty of time to spare.  But because of the photos I managed to get.  Okay, so there is nothing earth shattering about the composition or the lighting or the styling.  But look closely at the photo of the casserole dished out.  Do you see it, do you see it?  It’s a little faint, but yes, that is steam rising from the food.  I can’t believe I managed to catch that on camera!

This might not seem like a big deal to you, but it sure is to me!  I have tried to capture steam rising from my food before and not been even remotely successful.  I even did a little reading on how to do it and was discouraged because it seemed beyond my ken.  And I am sure this was just pure luck, with the right light and the right dark backdrop.  But when casserole really was hot from the oven and when I inserted the spoon, there was so much gorgeous steam, I had to try to capture it.  I got a number of pictures with little whisps here and there but this was the best of the lot.  And it makes what amounts to mashed vegetables look that much more inviting.  If I knew what I was doing on Photoshop, I am sure I could have enhanced the effect a little more, but I am happy with it as it is.

Now for the food itself.  Butternut squash is such a fall comfort food, but it’s just high carb enough not to be all that good for me.  Still, I saw some lovely ones at our local farmer’s market and I had to get one.  Along with a very large head of cauliflower, and I knew they’d be a great combo.  Stir in a little Parmesan, cream and dried thyme and you have yourself a delicious low carb dish for Thanksgiving.  It made my whole house smell like the holidays.
