- 1/2 butternut squash
- 1 cup spinach
- 5 cloves garlic
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- Provence seasoning
- 2 tbsp Parmesan
- 1 tbsp butter
- pumpkin seeds
Preheat oven to 350F.
Cut the neck of the butternut squash and with a sharp knife start cutting rounds. I cut about 1/2 inch.
Take a baking tray and lay some parchment paper. Lay the rounds and start seasoning.
Add some fresh spinach, whole cloves of garlic, olive oil, Provence seasoning, and some parmesan.
Optional, I have topped some unsalted butter on each round to make them look and taste more delicious. Butter adds shine and glaze.
Bake the squash for about 30-40 minutes in the preheated oven at 350F.
When you take the squash off the oven add some dried thyme, top some more parmesan and add some pumpkin seeds for decoration.
Enjoy warm or cold.
