Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 medium (about 2 pounds each) Butternut squash
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon, chopped Fresh rosemary
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Peel the butternut squash using a vegetable peeler. Slice off the ends, cut the squash in half lengthwise, and scoop out the seeds using a spoon.
Cut the squash into 1-inch cubes. Try to keep the pieces uniform for even cooking.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the squash cubes with olive oil, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and fresh rosemary. Toss well to coat the squash evenly.
Spread the coated squash cubes on a large baking sheet in a single layer to ensure even roasting.
Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes or until the squash is tender and lightly browned. Stir the squash halfway through the cooking time to promote even browning.
Once cooked, remove the baking sheet from the oven and let the squash cool for a few minutes before serving.
Serve warm as a side dish or a light main course. Enjoy your delicious and nutritious Whole30-compliant baked squash!
