Ingredients




1 large acorn squash (a bit over a pound)
1 TBS olive oil
1 TBS maple syrup
1/2 – 1 tsp curry (depending on how strong you want the curry flavor to be)
dash of salt

Preparation

1 Preheat oven to 400º F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat. 2 Rinse the outside of the acorn squash and then chop it in half. Seed the squash and chop off the stem. Next, slice it into one-inch wedges. I like use the natural grooves on the squash as a guide for thickness. 3 Place the sliced acorn squash in a medium-sized bowl. Add the rest of the ingredients to the bowl and stir until everything is well incorporated. 4 Lay the acorn squash in a single layer on top of the lined baking sheet, cut side down. 5 Bake for about 15 minutes. Flip the acorn squash slices to the other side so that both sides will be browned equally. 6 Bake the squash for another 10 to 15 minutes or until the pieces can be easily pierced with a fork.
