How to Prepare
Peel It; Hold the squash firmly in your non-dominant hand to prevent rolling while cutting off the top and bottom. Using an excellent vegetable peeler, hold the squash in your non-dominant hand and remove the outside skin. Make sure to remove the entire white layer.
Cut It: Where the larger (body) and skinnier (neck) ends of the squash meet, cut it in half. Cut the neck into 1″ rounds, then into 1″ strips, and then into 1″ cubes for each strip. Split the body in half to reveal the seeds, which you should then scoop out and roast. Each half should be divided into 1″ half moons and then 1″ cubes.
Dress It: Squash should be mixed with some olive oil, salt, pepper, and additional spices. Although chili powder and cumin are fantastic as well.
Roast It; Squash should be roasted for 40 minutes at 425°, stirring once. Puncture using your fork.
