Episode 19: Baked Spiced Butternut Squash



It's squash season and our farmer has been giving us lots of squash to eat. Here's a yummy way to enjoy your squash with dinner or as a dessert!

Ingredients:

1 small butternut squash
melted butter
cinnamon sugar

Preparation:

Brush a pan with butter and heat oven to 350°.

Carefully cut each squash in half lengthwise (or have your friend karate chop it) and scoop out seeds and soft fibers with a spoon. Brush the inside of each squash with butter. Sprinkle with cinnamon sugar. Place squash halves, seasoned cut side down, in the prepared pan. Add 1/2 cup water to the pan. Bake for 1 hour or until the squash is tender. Serve halves immediately. Delicious!

I laughed all they way through! Xander was embarrassed about seeing himself. It's too bad the chit chat did not work out.

We had a great time. Thanks for letting us be on the Retta show!
