ROSEMARY ROASTED BUTTERNUT SQUASH AND BEETS WITH GARLIC
NOTE: IT AS BEEN POINTED OUT IN THE REVIEWS THAT SQUASH COOKS FASTER THAN THE BEETS! Modified from AJC (online) What's For Dinner -- Food writer and AJC dining critic Meridith Ford Goldman found multiple uses for fresh pumpkin in AJC's Halloween feature story. Cut away chunks of pumpkin from the lid and inside scraps of your jack-o'-lantern, or use a separate pumpkin for roasting in this delectable fall side dish. Because I no longer buy pumpkins for Halloween, I've substituted butternut squash in this recipe.

Tips:
- Choose the right squash: Look for butternut squash that is firm and heavy for its size. Avoid squash that has blemishes or bruises.
- Cut the squash evenly: This will help it cook evenly. If the squash is too large, you can cut it in half or quarters.
- Toss the squash with oil and seasonings: This will help the squash to brown and caramelize.
- Roast the squash at a high temperature: This will help to create a crispy exterior and a tender interior.
- Don't overcrowd the pan: Give the squash enough space to roast evenly.
- Roast the squash until it is tender: You can check this by piercing it with a fork. The squash should be tender but not mushy.
- Serve the squash immediately: Roasted butternut squash is best served warm.
Conclusion:
Roasted butternut squash is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed as a side dish, main course, or even dessert. It is a great way to use up leftover squash and it is also a healthy and affordable option. With its sweet and nutty flavor, roasted butternut squash is sure to be a hit with everyone at your table.
