Sophia's Christmas Meal

Started preparing and cooking a special Christmas meal for Sophia as early as 5am! My early riser has been waking up between 2-3am since she arrived to US time zone. I think she's still probably hit by jet lag !

Special menu - Butternut Squash pasta with cheese

IMG_0084Bought these fresh organic ingredients from HEB last night.

While cooking the star pasta, I put the butternut squash (cut into pieces) into the Beaba Babycook for steaming about 10-15mins. I'm not sure if the adapter  is not working right or it need a power converter. The steaming took about an hour before the light goes off.

With a sauce pan, melt some unsalted butter and cooked tomatoes (chopped into cubes, removed seeds & skin) until mushy. Then add in some grated cheddar cheese and cook until melt.

Remove from stove, and add into the steamed butternut squash to purée. Unfortunately my Beaba Babycook died down on me :( Refusing to respond to the job. Darn! Luckily hubby has a spare mini blender to save my purée!

Lastly pour in the pureed cheese sauce and butternut squash into the mini star pasta and mix them well.
They are ready to serve!

And here's Sophia Christmas meal ;) 

Bon Appetite!
