Baked Butternut Squash Fries - 21 Day Fix Approved

Welcome!

If you are like me, you want to eat healthy, but you want to eat food that TASTES GOOD!  These fries definitely do the trick!  For variations, after baking, sprinkle with either cinnamon OR curry powder for a different twist! 




Butternut Squash Fries are a great alternative to regular fries, and are also 21 Day Fix-approved!
BUTTERNUT SQUASH FRIES
Ingredients:
2 lb. butternut squash
Pink Himalayan salt
Coconut oil cooking spray
Heat oven to 425 degrees.

Using a sharp knife, slice the ends off your butternut squash, then cut it in half width-wise. (Squash can be hard to cut, make sure you haven't done a strenuous arm workout recently - ha!) Peel squash with a vegetable peeler or knife. Remove the seeds from the inside of the squash.

Cut squash into "French-fry shapes".

Spray baking sheet with cooking spray and place squash on it. Spray squash with cooking spray and sprinkle with salt. 

Bake for 20 minutes.  Turn squash over and bake for another 10-15 minutes, until crispy on the outside.

21 Day Fixers: Use your green container to measure out your vegetable portion.
