Tofu Stuffed Butternut Squash

Nutritional values
The buttery, slightly nutty tasting pumpkin scores particularly well with its high beta-carotene content, which is good for skin, hair and eyesight. Just 100 grams of butternut squash covers 80 percent of the daily requirement of beta-carotene, as well as 20 percent of the daily requirement of vitamin C.
When buying cranberries, make sure you go for unsweetened or naturally sweetened fruits. In addition, they should preferably be unsulfured. Among other things, sulfurized dried fruits can trigger headaches in sensitive individuals.
