Streamline prep time by purchasing already peeled, cubed squash from the produce section of your supermarket. Use this preparation technique with other types of squash too. Acorn squash and delicata squash are both delicious roasted, and since their skins are edible when cooked, you don’t have to peel them.

3 pound(s), 1 large, peeled, seeded, cut into 1-inch cubes (or buy already peeled, cubed squash)
