Yes!

I love this chart. Sometimes it really is that simple.

Baked Kabocha Squash is my go-to healthy side dish! It’s so easy to make and way more nutritious than rice or potatoes. 

1 cup Kabocha Squash

• 75 calories 
• 214% DRV Vitamin A
• 32 %  DRV Vitamin C
• 38% DRV Fiber 
• Along with: Vitamin B6 & B2, manganese, potassium, Vitamin K, and folate

Easy Bake Method

1. Leave skin on (you can eat the skin of Kabocha Squash) 
2. Poke several holes throughout the squash 
3. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F
4. Bake whole squash for 50 minutes 
5. Enjoy with salt & pepper

Alternative, you can chop up the squash for faster baking time (30 minutes), but it takes a lot of effort. Microwaving the squash for 5 minutes makes it softer and easier to cut open. After chopping up the squash, brush each side with canola oil (or dip a napkin in oil and rub the  sides of each piece) and season with salt and pepper. 

Even though this is a winter squash, they should be available all year round at your local grocery store. This was from a few weeks ago.
