Preparation

In a bowl, toss the squash pieces in the olive oil and maple syrup. Then sprinkle with salt and a generous amount of pepper. Place on a baking sheet and roast in a 400 degree F oven for about 20 minutes, then flip the squash and return to the oven for an additional 15 to 20 minutes or until the squash is lightly golden brown.

I really liked this salad. I only had fontanela cheese, so that’s what I used. But very good!
