We recommend this squash and apple bake recipe for the post-bariatric surgery diet, but anyone looking to make healthy eating choices can enjoy the recipe. Butternut squash is a natural source of vitamin C, iron and is high in fiber, while apples provide vitamin C and are recognized for lowering cholesterol levels. This is a perfect, filling side dish for fall, when butternut squash and apples are both in season.
