Number of Servings: 1

Ingredients

    Butternut Squash, washed and unpeeled, cut into strips
    Olive Oil
    Pepper (red or black, I prefer red)

Tips

Great as a side, dipped in catsup just like fries. Don't knock it till you've tried it. They are yummy!!! Also, you may add any seasoning you desire. Thyme, Mrs. Dash, etc.


Directions

Wash butternut squash well and cut up just like french fries. I like mine thin and a little crispy. Lightly spray with olive oil, then sprinkle with pepper. If you don't have a sprayer, put fries in bowl and add 1/2 to 1 tsp. olive oil and pepper of choice and toss until all are coated. Arrange in a single layer on cookie sheet covered with parchment paper to prevent sticking. I usually make one serving at a time, about the size of an order of french fries you get in a restaurant. Bake at 425 until they are as crispy as you want them.
