  • 1 medium butternut squash, peeled and sliced into thin wedges
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika (optional)
  • Salt and freshly cracked black pepper, to taste

For the Feta Dip:

Instructions

  1. Roast the Squash: Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Toss squash slices with olive oil, paprika, salt, and pepper. Arrange on a baking sheet and roast for 25–30 minutes, flipping halfway, until golden and tender.
