I am in love with this vegetable. So creamy and yummy! It's very simple to roast a butternut squash. Just line your rimmed cookie sheet with foil, cut washed squash in half and remove seeds - saving them for roasting later. Next rub a few drops of olive oil on the cut sides, season with salt and pepper then place cut side down on pan and roast in a 400 degree oven for 45 minutes. Skin will be blistered and slightly brown. Test by inserting knife beneath the skin in to the flesh. Remove from oven and cool. The skin will now easily peel off, place chunks of cooked squash in the food processor and puree. It is now ready for incorporating into your favorite recipes.
