Beautiful autumn squash is everywhere these days. Are you cooking with it?
One of the things I love about squash is how easy the prepping and cooking can be. Of course, like any ingredient, you can make it complicated if you want to, but autumn squash taste great simply prepared.
With squash, most of the effort is in the cutting. Once you have that done, the oven does the rest.
Here are a few simple ways you can prepare squash ...and then, because we just couldn't stop ourselves, some more complicated ideas are below and in the next posting. They're all delicious.

thinly using a mandolin. Toss the squash with olive oil and garlic salt.
Bake at 300 degrees until brown. Serve like chips or over kale with
