If you've never had butternut squash, now is the time to try it!
Soft sweet squash with a crispy coating, perfect pairing.

It all starts with this... a simple butternut squash.

Trim the stem off so it's easier to cut through.

Scoop out the seeds.

One of mine wouldn't sit flat on the pan so I trimmed a bit off the bottom.

Brush with a little olive oil and spnkle with salt & pepper.
I have mine on a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper. 
Now pop it in the oven !

While the squash is cooking, prepare the breadcrumb mixture.
You'll need fresh breadcrumbs, not the dried up kind you buy.
I just used to hamburger buns I had and grated them. Nice fresh crumbs.

Add your ingredients to the crumb mixture.
I used prechopped garlic from a jar but to get it pressed I smush (yup smush) it between 2 spoons. Add your cheese and seasonings.

Cover your squash with the crumb mixture & return to the oven for about 20 mins until crumbs are golden and crispy.
