Steps
1
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F and line a baking sheet pan with parchment paper or foil.
2
Wash and dry the acorn squash. Slice the stem and the base off of the squash. Cut in half and scoop out the seeds with a spoon. Discard the seeds.
3
Slice into 1-inch crescent-moon shaped slices. Arrange in a layer on the prepared baking sheet. Drizzle the olive oil over top and rub to coat, turning each piece over so both sides are coated in oil.
4
Sprinkle with salt and any optional seasonings.
5
Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until the pieces are tender when poked with a fork. Serve warm.
