You can make some great “variations on a theme” with a sprinkling of seasonings”.  Try seasoned salt, Cajun seasoning, Italian seasoning, Chipotle (or chili) powder + ground cumin, or ground cinnamon + brown sugar (or maple syrup).

Ingredients:

• 4 medium butternut squash (4 to 5 pounds total)
• 1 c unsalted butter, melted and cooled
• 1/2 cup light brown sugar, packed
• 1 tablespoon kosher salt
• 1 -2 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper

Directions: 

1. Preheat the oven to 400°.
2. Cut off the ends of each butternut squash and discard.
3. Peel the squash and cut in half lengthwise.
4. Using a spoon, remove the seeds and cut the squash into 1 1/4″ to 1 1/2″ cubes (large and uniform is best).
5. Place them on a baking sheet.
6. Add the melted butter, brown sugar, salt and pepper.
7. With clean hands (seriously? The recipe TELLS you this?) toss all of the ingredients together.
8. Spread out in a single layer on the baking sheet.
9. Roast for 45 minutes to 55 minutes, until the squash is tender and the glaze begins to caramelize.
10. Turn the squash while roasting a few times with a spatula to be sure it browns evenly.
11. Adjust seasonings if needed.
