It's an unconventional burrito with a bunch of exciting flavors.

1. Cook the butternut squash according to the package directions.

3. In a small saucepan, combine the beans, water chili powder, cumin and turmeric. Cook and stir the ingredients on medium heat, until the mixture is warmed through and liquid is almost evaporated, about 5 minutes.

4. Stir together the corn and bean mixture.

5. Divide the bean mixture between 4 bowls.

6. Top EACH bowl with 1/4 cup of sliced grape tomatoes, 1/4 of the avocado, one sliced green onion, 2 tablespoons salsa, a tablespoon of the sour cream and 2 tablespoons of the shredded cheese.

This is a Freezer Friendly Recipe!

You can freeze individual portions for easy re-heating later. Add the toppings (step 6) only after the bowl is reheated. Don't try and freeze them.

Microwave on high for approximately 3-4 minutes. Keep the container open a little to allow steam to escape.
