Advice

There are many ways to make winter squash, but one of the best ones is to roast it. To roast winter squash, preheat your oven to 375°F and cut your squash in half lengthwise. Scoop out the seeds and brush the cut surfaces with oil. Place the squash halves cut side down on a baking sheet and bake for 40-50 minutes, or until the squash is tender when pierced with a fork. Once done, you can season the squash with herbs and spices of your choosing or top it with a sauce, such as pesto or tomato sauce. Enjoy your delicious roasted winter squash!
