Butternut Squash

I usually cut them in half. Scoop out the innards...peel the outside skin..dice into manageable cubes. Pour olive oil over and coat well. Then add chili flakes and cinnamon sticks and bake...Turns out nice...stir several times whilst baking.

Okay I'll bite (pun not intended I swear ) - I'm very curious about this recipe.  Did they cube the squash and mix it together with these ingredients before roasting, or was it done in a large segment and left to scoop out later?

I really wish my husband liked squash.   

Not sure, to be honest.  The squash was definitely cubed, and I would assume the nuts and seasonings were in before it was roasted.  They did a similar thing with acorn squash, they just cut that in half, cleaned it, then brushed with butter, seasonings, and nuts, and roasted it.  They did all sorts of nice veg there... *sigh* I would kill for their sweet braised red cabbage with montrache (sp?) goat cheese crumbles right now...
