Cooking Instructions
Prepare the Squash
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Cut the butternut squash in half lengthwise and scoop out the seeds. Place the halves on a baking sheet, cut side up.
Season the Squash
Drizzle the olive oil over the squash and rub it evenly over the surface. Sprinkle with salt and black pepper. Place garlic cloves in the cavity of the squash.
Roast the Squash
Roast the squash in the preheated oven for about 45-50 minutes, or until the flesh is tender and easily pierced with a fork.
Add Sage and Cheese
Remove the squash from the oven and sprinkle fresh sage leaves and grated Parmesan cheese on top. Return to the oven for another 5-10 minutes until the cheese is melted and golden.
Serve
Let the squash cool slightly before serving. Scoop out the flesh and serve as a side dish or main course.
