    Slices of oven-roasted Butternut Squash with Rosemary and Lime

    Crispy, but tender slices of butternut squash with fresh rosemary and lime, roasted with a honey-lime glaze make an ideal side dish for a holiday dinner.

    It's hard to think about winter squash when I'm playing in the tropical sunshine, but don't those crescent-shaped butternut squash slices just look warm and sunny? What a great way to brighten a fall or winter day! I made this Butternut Squash with Rosemary and Lime side dish when I was rushing around packing just before we left for Kauai.

    I needed something to add to the Baked Lemon Chicken and root vegetables I had roasting in the oven and the last squash from my garden was calling to me.

    For weeks before this trip, I concentrated on keeping healthy by eating superfoods, getting regular exercise, and drinking lots of water. Because . . . .  The Plane. And germs. And People Sneezing. And the Dreaded Bacteria-Infested Tray Table.

    Now, don't judge me. Honestly, I don't obsess over germs.  I'm just . . . careful. If you've ever spent your vacation being sick, you'll understand my concerns. Sharing stale air with a large group of strangers is just something we have to do if we choose to fly. Building up my immune system before I go has become a regular routine for me and it has always paid off.Pouring glaze on to a bowl of Butternut Squash with Fresh Rosemary and Honey-Lime Glaze |www.flavourandsavour.com

    So along with a healthy kale salad full of citrus fruits and pomegranate arils, we had this oven-roasted butternut squash with fresh rosemary, baked with a subtle lime and honey glaze. Just look at those crispy edges!

    How to Make Oven-Roasted Butternut Squash with Rosemary and Lime

    1. Fresh rosemary is the secret to this dish, so don't substitute dried herbs this time.
    2. Just peel and slice the squash, then toss with oil, butter, lime juice and honey.
    3. Spread out on a baking sheet and roast in the oven, turning part way through.

        Thanks! I think this glaze would be good on other types of squash too.
