How To Roast Butternut Squash
If you've never roasted a butternut squash before, watch my latest video, How to Roast Butternut Squash on PiperCooksTV to find out how. It's really easy and only takes half an hour in the oven. Later this week, I'll share how I used the squash, in these two new recipes - Butternut Squash Hummus, and Butternut Squash & Bean Burgers.
The toughest part is cutting the squash. In the video I cut the squash in half first, and then peeled and cubed it, but for more stability, you could cut the ends off first, giving the squash a flat place to stand on while you cut it in half.
