Salad
  1. Cut the butternut squash and slice into half inch, add oil and season on top then place on a lightly oiled pan and roast at 375º degrees. After 15 minutes, flip over the squash and leave for another 15 minutes. I like it crispy so that is why I like to leave in longer.

Recipe Notes

When making the squash, I always cook it ahead of time and keep it in the fridge for when I’m about to make the salad. That way I don’t have to wait for the butternut to cool off.
