Ingredients:
  • 3 bags of butternut squash at 12 oz each (buy pre-peeled and precut to save time), if not, peel and cut yourself 1 butternut squash (seeds removed) into 1 inch pieces and use 2 TBSP of oil instead of 4 and use 2 cloves of garlic instead of 4)
  • 4 tablespoons of olive oil or coconut oil
