Description

Ingredients

• Fries:
• 1 medium butternut squash
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon ground pepper
• chopped parsley for topping (optional)
• Dipping Sauce:
• 1 avocado, peeled and pit removed
• ½ cup plain Greek yogurt (you can use vegan mayonnaise or vegan yogurt as alternative)
• 1 garlic clove, minced
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• ¼ teaspoon salt

Directions

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
• Peel squash with a vegetable peeler.
• Cut squash in half and remove the seeds.
• Using a crinkle cutter (to make it fancy) or a regular knife, slice into fries.
• Try to make them all the same size so they bake evenly.
• In a medium bowl, mix together olive oil, salt and pepper.
• Add squash and mix to make sure its well covered.
• Spread evenly onto a baking sheet in single layer, not touching each other. If its crowded, use two baking pans otherwise they will not be crispy.
• Bake for 20 minutes until edges are golden brown, making sure to shake the pan half way through.
• While fries are baking, prepare dipping sauce by placing all of the ingredients in a food processor until smooth.
• Remove fries from oven and allow to cool before serving.
• Serve with dipping sauce. ENJOY!
