Ingredients: serves four as a side 2 cups kabocha, butternut, or banana squash 4 cloves garlic 2 tablespoons olive oil 1 teaspoon sea salt 1/2 teaspoon black pepper 1 tablespoon fresh sage leaves Directions: 1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Peel and deseed the squash. Cut it into 1/2 inch cubes. 2. Trim the woody end off of each garlic clove and smash. Leave the papery skin on to protect the garlic while it roasts. Toss the squash cubes and garlic with the olive oil, salt, and pepper, and spread out on a rimmed baking sheet. 3. Roast for 20 minutes, or until the cubes are tender. Give the cubes a quick flip halfway through cook time. Before serving, remove the garlic skins, toss with the sage leaves, and serve.
