Butternut Squash, Feta, and Arugula Salad

GOOD TO KNOW Sweet-tasting butternut squash is easier to prepare than some other hard-skinned winter squashes, and is even sweeter when roasted until it caramelizes. It’s also extremely versatile: Toss it into a salad, slice it into ā€œfriesā€ and dust with spices, or drizzle roasted haves with maple butter.
