My butternut squash fries and roasted seeds



 I made some butternut squash fries and roasted the seeds the other day.  They were both good.  Although husband M and son K don't like butternut squash particularly, maybe just in a soup.  M likes the roasted seeds though they are crunchy.  The hardest part is peeling the squash so I may not do this again anytime soon.

The 'fries' are just baked in olive oil, salt, thyme, pepper, onion powder, garlic powder, paprika for 15-20 minutes until softened.

The seeds are boiled in salted water for 10 minutes then roasted for 5 minutes until the seeds start to pop.

Your butternut squash fries looks absolutely scrumptious. I remember making those pumpkin seeds when the kids were little. I can't even remember what they tasted like. Sigh... It was fun though.
