Paleo herb roasted squash slices is a crowd pleasing side dish recipe with no grain, no dairy, no gluten! Just lots of fun flavors!
This is a great side dish that comes together quickly and has everyone who has tried it swooning! It tastes buttery, and almost cheesy….even though there is no cheese.
I have even enjoyed it as a nest underneath molten eggs for a breakfast treat!
I like the chewy texture of the skin, but it is easily removable after it if roasted if you prefer.

Delicious! I made this tonight using ghee. I baked it at 400 for about 10 minutes but turned it down to 325, it seemed to be browning too quickly. This will be a regular recipe for me.
Wow Maury, that was quick!! Maybe you’re like me and always looking for fun ways to do sides….I am doing a squash gratin tonight with a topping like the coating in this recipe! Glad you love it!
