Okay, so I love me some squash and since Fall is here, what better way to endulge than with some squash recipes?! For this recipe, I used acorn squash which provides a milder taste than butternut squash, however it is still sweet and gives a hint of that nutty flavor. Acorn squash is so versitile which makes it a great ingredient for roasting, grilling, sauteing, baking or steaming. Anyway, this recipe is really simple. All you have to do is prepare your squash, toss all your ingredients, and pop it in the oven.
Ingredients
- 2 acorn squash
- 2 tbsp melted butter
- 2 tsp rosemary
- 2 tsp garlic powder
- 1/4 cup parmesan cheese
- salt and pepper to taste
- 2 tsp of parsley for garnish
Cooking Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400 degrees.
- Cut your acorns lengthwise and scoop out all the seeds.
- Now slice each half into slices (roughly 1/2 inch thick).
- Combine all ingredients minus the parsley in a large mixing bowl.
- Now add the squash and toss until well incorporated.
- Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.
- Line the squash on baking sheet making sure not to crowd. Do not stack them.
- Bake for 23-25 minutes.
- Take out of the oven and let cool.
- Garnish with parsley and additional parmesan cheese if you wish.
- Enjoy!
Note: It is safe to eat the skin, however if you wish not to, it is easy to just peel off the skin on the slices.
