Roasted Delicata Squash

Recipes

I was introduced to Delicata Squash about 7 years ago at a Friendsgiving. I had never seen roasted squash with skin left on like this and was immediately intrigued. As soon as the squash hit my lips, I knew I would be making this simple dish for years to come.

Ingredients (serves 4):

  • 3 Delicata Squash
  • 2 TBSPs EVOO
  • 1 TSP Salt
  • 1 TSP Pepper
  • 1/2 TSP Nutmeg

Directions:

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees
  2. Slice squash lengthwise and then scoop out the seeds with a metal spoon.

3. Slice the squash into 1/2 inch pieces and make sure to leave the skin on.

4. Place cut pieces into a baking dish and cover with the EVOO, salt, pepper and nutmeg.

5. Roast in the oven for about 30 minutes or until soft and the skin starts to turn a bit golden. Enjoy!
