Parmesan Roasted Acorn Squash

I absolutely love roasting veggies. This is such a simple recipe – acorn squash, dried herbs, salt and a touch of parmesan cheese all roasted to perfection. The flavor of this dish fantastic!
The bonus is that you can also eat the skin of the acorn squash since roasting it helps to soften it. Two snaps and a twist for saving time by not having to peel it.

Notes

AIP Paleo PowderThis recipe calls for 2 small acorn squashes, because smaller ones are easier than larger ones to cut up.  But if you’ve got a heavy, sharp knife, the skills and the inclination, a large squash will do.
The AIP Paleo Powder is a mixture of Himalayan salt, Garlic Powder, Onion Powder, Oregano , Basil and Sage.  Feel free to use these herbs in any combination to your taste preference if you do not have the AIP Paleo Powder.
