Ingredients:

  • Butternut Squash, 1 medium, peeled and cubed
  • Delicate Squash, 2 small, sliced
  • Honey Nut Squash, 2 small, sliced
  • A Taste of Florence Olive Oil, 3 tablespoons
  • Maple Syrup- 2 tablespoons
  • Fresh Parsley, chopped, 2 tablespoons
  • Fresh Thyme, chopped, 1 tablespoon
  • Fresh Sage, chopped, 2 tablespoons
  • Dried Italian seasoning, 1 teaspoon
  • Nutmeg, grated, or dried powder- 1/4 teaspoon
  • Onion Powder, 1/4 teaspoon
  • Garlic Powder, 1/4 teaspoon
  • Paprika, 1/4 teaspoon
  • Salt and pepper, 1 teaspoon of each, to taste
  • Pomegranate Seeds, 1/4 cup, to taste, for topping
  • Feta or goat cheese crumbles, 1/4 cup, to taste, for topping

Instructions:

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (205°C).
  2. Dice up the squash into small pieces.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, combine the cubed butternut squash, sliced delicate squash, and sliced honey nut squash.
  4. In a separate mixing bowl, whisk together the chopped fresh parsley, thyme, oregano, dried Italian seasoning, grated nutmeg, onion powder, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper until well combined.
  5. Drizzle the A Taste of Florence olive oil & maple syrup over the squash and toss until evenly coated.
  6. Sprinkle the herb and spice mixture over the squash and toss until the squash are evenly coated.
  7. Spread the squash out on a baking sheet in a single layer. Don’t overcrowd the sheet here, use two sheets if needed to space out the squash so they can get a nice crisp on the outside but smooth delicious texture on the inside 🙂
  8. Roast the squash for 30-40 minutes, flipping once halfway through, until they are tender and golden brown.
  9. Remove the roasted squash from the oven and transfer them to a serving dish.
  10. Garnish with additional chopped fresh sage, parsley, pomegranate seeds, and feta crumbles. Chopped nuts would also be a nice touch here.
