One of my favorite things about Beachbody's Portion Fix eating system is that a whole cup (green container) of butternut squash counts as a one vegetable and not a carb!
I almost always have roasted butternut squash ready to go in the fridge to have as a snack, a side dish, or to add to salads.
The hardest part of any recipe that calls for butternut squash. is peeling the butternut squash.
Roasted Butternut Squash
-peeled butternut squash, medium dice
-cooking spray
-seasoned salt, to taste
-black pepper, to taste
Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Lightly spray baking pan with cooking spray. Distribute squash evenly on pan. Spray the squash lightly with cooking spray. Add seasoned salt and black pepper to taste.
Bake for 10 minutes, remove from oven, stir. Return to oven and bake an additional 5 minutes then stir again. You want the squash to be tender and for some pieces to be browned a bit. You may need to cook it a little longer, use your eyes!
1 green container counts as 1 green serving
