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.
In a small bowl, combine brown sugar, salt and pepper. Sprinkle squash with half the seasoning mixture.
