Butternut Squash Fries


I bought a butternut squash and was going to make soup out of it, but then I stumbled upon an idea to make fries out of the squash. I thought this was a great idea. They turned out great and the kids loved them. The cutting up of the squash was a little labor intensive, but after that it was so easy.

butternut squash, peeled, seeds removed
olive oil
salt

1. Slice the squash into desired thickness pieces.
2. Place in a large bowl and pour a little olive oil and salt on top and toss to coat.
3. Place on a cookie sheet and bake in a 425 degree oven for about 30 minutes until crispy.
4. Stir about every 10 minutes during the cooking process.
