I’ll be honest – this was the first time ever for me cooking delicata squash. I’ve been seeing it on everyone’s Instagram and blog recipes and finally broke down and bought a couple. It’s a squash that’s incredibly gorgeous, striped and brightly colored, so I really don’t know why I waited so long to try it – but now that I did, boy I’m definitely not going back!

Popular for it’s soft, creamy texture and how sweet it becomes once roasted, delicata squash is also incredibly rich in nutrients.

Today, I’m sharing a recipe for Maple Roasted Delicata Squash – a super simple way to cook up this seasonal favorite.
