There is nothing nicer than roasted veg, am I right? The sweet earth flavours. The tenderness. Everything about it oozes comfort.
Butternut squash is perfect for roasting with simple, clean flavours as it’s nuttiness lifts the dish all by itself. If you want a fast prep, one tray dinner, give this a whirl.
