This is a recipe that Stephanie found and likes!

Squash isn’t my favorite vegetable, but even I think this is pretty good!

Ingredients:
1 |  | Butternut Squash
1 | Tablespoon | Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1/2 | Teaspoon | Kosher Salt
1/2 | Teaspoon | Freshly Grated Black Pepper
2 | Cloves | Garlic, finely minced
2 | Teaspoons | Fresh Sage, finely minced
|  | Zest from 1/2 a lemon

- Preheat the oven to 450°F
- Cut both ends off the squash and discard.
- Cut the squash in half lengthwise and scoop out and discard all the seeds.
- Peel both halves, removing anything that isn’t as bright orange as the inside.
- Cut the neck of the squash off the round end.
- Cut both necks into 1/2″ slices
- Cut the round ends in half, then cut each piece into 1/2″ slices
- Toss in a bowl with olive oil to coat
- Sprinkle salt and pepper over the bowl and toss again to evenly coat the pieces
- Spray a baking sheet with cooking spray, put all the squash pieces on the tray in a single layer and put in oven.

- Flip all the pieces and sprinkle with the minced garlic and roast 8-10 minutes more.
