A delicious deviation from the typical squash preparation, this recipe has kind of a nutty flavor with or without the nuts. Good as-is, but of course each person can salt and pepper their own serving to taste. The leftovers are good served as a cold salad if you don't like the cooked spinach that results from re-heating. Almonds and walnuts can be used in addition to or instead of the pecans.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Lightly grease a baking sheet.
- Slice butternut squash cross-wise into 1-inch slices; peel and clean each slice, removing and discarding seeds and stringy pulp from the center. Cut cleaned slices into 1-inch cubes.
- Toss squash cubes, onion, and olive oil together in a bowl until coated; transfer to the prepared baking sheet.
- Roast in the preheated oven until squash is tender and starting to brown, 25 to 30 minutes.
- Toss squash mixture, spinach, dried cranberries, and pecans together in a serving bowl and serve warm.
