I love this
stuff. It is one of the few vegetables I could eat as an
entire meal. This recipe comes from Ina Garten the Barefoot
Contessa but I have reduced the amount of butter she uses.
2
medium butternut squashes (or 1 large)
½
stick butter
¼ cup
brown sugar
1 tsp
salt
1 tsp
black pepper
Preheat the oven to 400°. Cut the
ends off the butternut and peel the skin off with a vegetable
peeler. Cut in half lengthwise. Using a spoon,
remove the seeds and pulp. Cut the squash into 1"
pieces. Transfer to a large mixing bowl. Melt the
butter, add the brown sugar, salt, and stir to dissolve the
sugar. Pour the butter mixture over the squash and mix
well. Transfer to a baking sheet. Spread out evenly
in a single layer. Bake for 50 minutes. Serve. Home
