- Cut the squash correctly: To cut the butternut squash, first cut it in half lengthwise. Then, scoop out the seeds and stringy pulp from the center of each half.

- Use a variety of spices: To add flavor to the roasted squash and carrots, use a variety of spices such as salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, cumin, and paprika.
- Don't overcrowd the pan: When roasting the squash and carrots, make sure to spread them out in a single layer on the baking sheet. This will help them to roast evenly.
- Roast the vegetables until they are tender: The squash and carrots are done roasting when they are tender when pierced with a fork.
