Butternut Squash Fries — They’re called fries, but we bake them in the oven for a fabulous crunch without oil. With just two ingredients —butternut squash and sea salt— you’ll love that you’re getting vitamins A, and C, potassium, fiber, and protein. What’s more, they’re pretty easy to prep and bake. If you like, add your favorite seasonings for an extra boost of flavor – rosemary, red pepper flakes, garlic powder, and on. Get the recipe below.
