Roasted Delicata Squash

Delicata Squash may not be the most recognizable squash of the season, but it’s sweet flavor and tender flesh make it one of the best squashes for roasting.  Simply wash the outside, slice the squash into little rings, toss rings with olive oil and generous salt plus a pinch of pepper, and roast for 20-30 minutes at 425.  Squash rings are done with edges are brown and seeds are crispy.  Eat the seeds along with the squash, or remove them after cooking and eat on their own (they taste like pumpkin seeds).

These little rings are perfect for snacking, as a side dish, or as a salad topper.
