Quick Winter Squash Puree

So many reasons this recipe was bad. First 1 box of this frozen squash is $3.99/box.
Second it tasted like baby food. It was watery and had no stand up taste. Definitely not having again. It was easy to make though.

Quick Winter Squash Puree

1/3 C fat-free, less sodium chicken broth
2 (12-oz) packages frozen cooked butternut squash (found it in the organic section)
1 TBSP Butter
1/2 tsp grated orange rind
1 1/2 tsp maple syrup
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp black pepper

1. Place broth and squash in a large saucepan over medium heat. Cover and cook 15 minutes or until thoroughly heated, stirring occasionally. Add butter and remaining ingredients; stir until combined.
