Acorn Squash Fries (Baked)

Ingredients (use vegan versions):

1 acorn squash
sea salt
cooking spray

Directions:

Preheat your oven to 425 degrees.

Use a vegetable peeler and peel the squash. Cut it in half and scoop out all the seeds. Slice up the squash into 1/2 inch thick-ish slices, Slice them again if you want them in a more fry-style shape.

Spray a cookie sheet with non-stick spray, put the squash on the pan and sprinkle with the salt.

Bake for 35-40 minutes or till they get a lil browned.

These ended up tasting allot like regular potato fries, not all sweet like sweet potato fries. My roommates and I really liked them allot and they went great with ketchup and also with a dip recipe that I have on this site that's pretty much half Veganaise, half ketchup and some fajita seasoning. Yay for simple and yummy recipes! (that are actually good for you)

Serves: 2

Preparation time: 45 minutes

These were quite good, they tasted like a combination between regular and sweet potato fries. I might add some chili or garlic powder next time to jazz up the flavor a bit. Thanks for the recipe!

I make these when I can find delicata squash since they just need to be peeled and then are basically already thin enough to make nice eady fry shapes. I could eat them all myself (and have).

Pretty tasty, but how did you all cut and peel the acorn squash? I found it EXTREMELY difficult. I couldnt' peel off all the skin due to the shape. Any suggestions?

i just eat the skin...at least the skin on butternut and pumpkin...if they are cooked long enough, it's totally chewable
