Also known as Bohemian squash or sweet potato squash, delicata has a rich yellow flesh and a buttery, sweet-corn like taste. The skin is edible and delicious as well. Low in calories and high in fiber, delicata is a good source of vitamin A. There are so many ways you could flavor this squash. Below are a few of my simple favorites. Ingredients:
2 delicata squash, about 1 lbs each |
nonstick cooking spray, olive oil |
2 teaspoons brown sugar substitute |
1 -2 teaspoon cinnamon |
salt |
2 teaspoons brown sugar substitute |
2 teaspoons chili powder |
salt |
salt |
cayenne, to taste |
ketchup, for dipping |
Directions:
1. Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
2. Wash the squash thoroughly. Cut the hard ends off each squash, and cut them in half.
3. Using a spoon, scoop out the seeds and strings. Cut each half into 3 or 4 wedges.
4. Place the squash wedges skin down on a cookie sheet. Spray with cooking spray and sprinkle on your seasonings.
5. Roast in the oven for 40 minutes.
