Tips
- Giving the squash a head start in the oven before hasselbacking makes it easier to slice into.
- Basting the squash as it roasts helps with flavor and texture.
- Athenos Feta crumbles offset the sweetness with their signature tangy, salty flavor.
- Use what you love and what you have on hand for toppings.
