The fall season brings many comforting flavors, including the versatile butternut squash. Although technically a winter squash, butternut is available most of the year because it keeps so long. These fries are a healthy alternative to regular potatoes, and it’s an out-of-the-box way to eat this squash. Don’t be afraid to add a few extra spices to flavor the squash how you want to eat it.
