Preheat oven to 450 degrees.
Scrub the squash. Cut in half and scoop out the seeds.

Notes
The skin of the squash is packed with great nourishment and can be eaten when baked. If you do not want the skin, peel the squash and cut into cubes.
Sprinkle your favorite spice on the squash before baking such as cinnamon, thyme, rosemary, curry, cumin or sage.
