Roasted cubes of tender butternut squash are tossed with rich brown sugar, buttery pecans, and a hint of cinnamon for a sweet, nutty finish. It's the perfect balance of earthy, sweet, and crunchy—ideal for holiday tables or comforting weeknight dinners.

Ingredients:

1 (12-16oz) bag Frozen Butternut Squash
2 tbsp Butter
2-3 tbsp Brown Sugar (adjust to taste)
1/4 tsp Cinnamon (optional but recommended) 
Pinch of Salt
1/2 cup Chopped Pecans (toasted for extra flavor)

Instructions:

1. Steam or microwave frozen squash according to package until tender. Drain any excess water. 
2. If you want a smooth texture, lightly mash the squash with a fork or potato masher. You can also leave them in chunks if you prefer.
