peel, cube, little olive oil drizzled over it, salt pepper and a small sprinkle of nutmeg. roast 350 degrees 45 minutes to an hour .. turn once while cooking so its evenly roasted. Serve like this OR toss it on buttered pasta with toasted pine nuts, and equal parts diced ham of similar size to the finished roasted squash SO good! next soup: roast, add minced garlic while roasting to the above directions. put in food processer with chicken broth and butter sautéed 1/2 onion minced. put back in saucepan add diced 1/2 block cream cheese and 2/3 cup whole milk or heavy cream. cook til smooth and thick. yum! I love butternut squash and roasting is the only way to cook it and keep its full flavor in my book
