Yumminess could not be easier. So many people forget that there is this world of food out there called squashes. My theory is that most people just don’t know what to do with these things that look like pumpkins.
INGREDIENTS
- any squash like: acorn or butternut or kabocha
- extra virgin olive oil
- Himalayan or sea salt
- black pepper
- onion powder (optional)
METHOD
- Preheat oven to 375 F.
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Cut the “ends” of the squash so you create a small flat end.
- Hold the squash with one of the flat ends on your cutting board.
- Cut the squash in half (this is the hardest part).
- Proceed to cut it in any size chunks you like (smaller cooks faster).
- Distribute the cut squash evenly on the parchment sheet.
- Pour olive oil lightly all over.
- Sprinkle salt and pepper.
- Bake for 30 – 40 minutes or until lightly browned and crispy.
I recommend to try it this simple way first and then next time try adding onion powder or other spices to see what flavors you prefer. Actually, at this point you can start playing with any additional spices to see what you love.
