Pumpkin spice and honey roasted squash

Fall cliché : squash. In all shapes and tastes, they are absolutely perfect to cook with. Throw it in the oven with spices, add some poultry and dinner is served! I served mine with chicken, yummy.

If the skin of your squash is quite thin, don’t even bother peel it. I didn’t with my red kuri squash and it was fine! If it is on the thicker side you might want to peel it first but it is a question of taste.

Spices wise, I kept it simple. Pumpkin spice because what’s more seasonal than that, really? And honey because a little sweetness makes this dish pretty much bomb.
I tried a more savory blend with thyme, salt, pepper, garlic and parsley. It was good too, choose your combo and massage your squash with it and done!
