Butternut Squash Fries

This is a Hungry Girl recipe. I saw it on her TV show. I was skeptical, but I have some squash so I decided to try it! I keep trying to eat squash since it's good for you but I don't particularly care for it. I definitely like it this way!!! It takes a little time, but it's super easy to make!

Ingredients:
Butternut Squash
Salt

Directions:
Preheat oven to 425F.
Halve, seed, and peel the squash. Cut into french fry shapes, using a crinkle cutter if you have one!
Place on a baking sheet sprayed with non-stick cooking spray. Sprinkle with salt.
Bake for 40 minutes, turning halfway. (If you have a baking stone, you probably don't have to turn them!)

Notes:
Hungry Girl calls 5 oz (weigh it before cooking) a serving. This is a decent serving size, but I am sure you could eat more. :)  I'll put the nutritional info for 5 oz though. When I told Dave what I was making and asked if he wanted some, he said that he would try it, sounding wary. So I fully expected to make both servings that I made. I gave him one to try and he said it was "different". So I asked if I could eat his serving, and to my shock and awe (okay, it really wasn't shocking) he said no! Dave ate his with balsamic vinegar (yum!) and I ate mine with ketchup (yum!). I will DEFINITELY be making this again. (SOON!) Oh, for 2 servings (10 oz), I used about 1/2-2/3 of HALF of the squash. Of course it will depend on the size of your squash, but there you go.
