Roasted Butternut Squash with Collard Greens


Something to bring to Thanksgiving?

Roasted the squash in the oven for about forty minutes with margarine slathered over it. Pulled it out, peeled it and chopped it. Meanwhile cooked some chopped onion, threw in the greens and cooked squash. More margarine, some Italian seasoning and you're good to go.
