For butternut squash cubes
- Cut your butternut squash into manageable chunks.
- Peel and take out the seeds. The seeds can be used to plant more butternut squash or you can roast them too like pumpkin seeds.

- Place your chunks into a large mixing bowl.
- Pour olive oil and sprinkle salt over the butternut squash cubes and mix.
- Spread your cubes evenly over the baking sheet.
- Roast in the oven at 400° Fahrenheit/ 200° Celsius, until cooked through. *see notes

- small whole squash: +1 hour roasting time
- small to medium sized squash halves: +40 mins
- 1 inch sized cubes: 20-25 mins
