Roasted Butternut Squash and Sweet Apple Sausage



I love butternut squash and this is a super easy way to serve it! The melding of all the different flavors of the fresh herbs and the sweet apple sausage is the perfect fall dish. And you will not believe the aroma from your oven as it roasts!

This can be served as a side dish or as a main dish accompanied by a fresh salad of greens topped with apples or pears, Gorgonzola, toasted pecans, a little bacon and a white balsamic or raspberry vinaigrette!



Ingredients:

1 medium size butternut squash, seeds removed and cut into bite size pieces
10 cloves of fresh garlic, sliced lengthwise
Sweet apple chicken sausage, sliced
fresh sage, chopped
fresh rosemary, chopped
EVOO
sea salt and fresh cracked pepper

Method:
Toss all ingredients together and mix well. Place in roasting pan and place in an oven heated to 350 degrees F.
 Roast for 30-40 minutes stirring every 10-15 minutes.
