BUTTERNUT SQUASH

Ingredients:

  • 2 1/2 cups peeled squash cut into 1-inch pieces (butternut, buttercup, amber, golden nugget or hubbard)
  • 1 1/2 Tbsp. olive oil

    Indian Spice Health Seasoning Mix:

  • 1 tsp. curry powder
  • 1 tsp. turmeric
  • 3/4 tsp. salt
  • 1 pinch of cayenne

    Procedure:

    Place squash in bowl and toss with olive oil. In a small bowl mix the Indian Spice Health Seasoning ingredients together.

    Sprinkle spice mix on squash and toss. Use 1 1/2 to 2 tsp. of the spice mix for every 4 cups squash.

    Pre-heat oven to 375°. Place 12-inch skillet over high heat for 2 minutes. Turn off heat. Add squash and all the oil. Use a rubber spatula. Shake the pan to distribute squash into 1 layer. Place in oven and roast for 20 to 30 minutes turning once midway.

    Notes:

  • Don't crowd the pan or the squash won't brown properly. If not brown after 20 minutes raise heat to 400° for 5 minutes.
