Absolutely delicious! It's sweet and earthy flavors just melt in your mouth. One trick they don't tell you online, but they do in the magazine: to make peeling an entire clove of garlic much quicker, soak it in boiling hot water for about 10 minutes first! I baked some chicken breasts to go along with it, at the same time the squash was roasting. This is definitely a "keeper"!

Ingredients

  • 1  2-lb. butternut squash, peeled and cut in --inch pieces

  • 3  Tbsp. olive oil

  • 1/3  cup shredded Pecorino cheese
  •   Sliced green onion (optional)

Directions

1. Heat oven to 425 degrees F. In 15x10x1-inch baking pan toss together squash, peeled garlic cloves, oil, and 1/4 teaspoon each salt and black pepper. Evenly spread squash in pan. Bake 15 to 18 minutes or until squash is tender and lightly browned.
