Preheat oven to 200° celcius

Rinse squash. Cut off ends and cut into desired size. I cut into quarters lengthwise and then cut into 1″ pieces.

Place squash pieces on baking sheet. Drizzle with olive and toss until completely coated.

Lightly sprinkle garlic powder, pepper and paprika over squash.

Generously season squash with freshly ground salt.

Squeeze lemon juice over squash.
