Glazed Squash
Ingredients
2 pounds winter squash (try acorn, butternut, delicata or others)
3 Tablespoons brown sugar
¼ teaspoon each salt and black pepper
Directions
- Wash hands with soap and water.
- Rinse or scrub fresh vegetables under running water before preparing.
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil. Lightly grease the foil.
- Rinse the squash, cut in half and scoop out seeds. Cut squash into 1-inch thick slices and lay on baking sheet.
