Serves 4
2 medium butternut squash, halved lengthwise and seeded
4 teaspoons olive oil
1 teaspoon crushed, dried rosemary
1 teaspoon crushed, dried thyme
1 teaspoon crushed, dried za’atar
3 garlic cloves, minced
Salt and pepper
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
Place butternut squash halves on a large baking sheet flesh side up. Mix the oil, crushed herbs and garlic in a bowl. Drizzle one teaspoon of the mixture over each squash half, spreading the oil and herbs evenly across the surface. Season with salt and black pepper. Roast 25 minutes, or until flesh is fork-tender.
Did you know that only 2% of Forward readers donate to support our nonprofit newsroom? That 2% make it possible for millions to read the Forward without a paywall or subscription — removing any barriers to the full and fair Jewish story.
But while the Forward is free to read, it isn’t free to produce. Big stories — like deep dives into the antisemitism data, political scoops or reporting trips to college campuses — take months of research and fact-checking. All while we keep you informed of what you need to know each day.
