Blue Ribbon Recipe

Chili powder and rosemary go together surprisingly well in this butternut squash recipe. Once baked, the butternut squash is tender and full of flavor. Squeezing lime at the end brings the flavors together and gives the squash a little zing. Enjoy this as a fall side dish or a light dinner.
