These were a bit strange to get used to, only because my brain thought sweet potato when I saw them, but my mouth said squash when I ate one! Once I got past that, I really enjoyed them. I usually only make pureed butternut squash, so this was a nice change. My husband really liked them, but unfortunately my children were not fooled. They know a squash when they taste it, even if it looks like a fry! Oh well. Some day they'll eat their veggies :o) Thanks for a fun and different squash recipe!

Very good. Some were not crisp, but I guess that's why it's called squash. Good alternative to regular fries.

SUPER easy & yummy! Sprayed w/butter cooking spray & baked for closer to an hour but LOVED these!

Loved the flavor! I took mine out at 35 minutes because they were starting to burn, but they weren't crisp at all. I'm not sure if that meant I cooked them too long or not long enough. The flavor was excellent though. I adore sweet potato fries and these definitely rivaled them. I just wish they had been at least a little firmer. My Pampered Chef serrated peeler made peeling it a breeze. Will definitely make again.

I have mine in the oven right now and the smell is wonderful. MOD: I added some nutmeg and garlic with a tiny bit of raw sugar, salt and pepper. I went ahead and made up the entire squash as fries. We are having them with some bacon/cheese stuffed burgers and a small side salad.

Very good! Reminded me a bit of sweet potato fries -- but these fries are significantly lower in calories. Loved the sweetness of the squash. Whether you're dieting or not, these fries are better than regular potato fries.

Wow! How do I give more than 5 stars? This is so low cal, easy, and tasty! Yeah the peeling is a pain, and the cook time is a bit long, but well worth it. I'll be going to the store tomorrow to pickup more squash! Thanks for posting such a simple yet tasty recipe!

YUM! I bought the more expensive pre-peeled squash, and I'm glad I did. Had them with salt and vinegar potato chip fish and it was an awesome meal!

These were good. Of course, the hard part was peeling the dang squash! I added chili powder to ours. I should have cooked them longer but they were still good.

Yummy! This was so easy and completely delicious! This is the first time I tried butternut squash so I wanted something simple to start with so I could really get a feel for the flavor of this veggie. This recipe sure fit the bill! Thanks so much for sharing.

I like them without the ketchup because they have such a great flavor on their own. Great healthy idea for dessert! Thanks!

OMG! These are sooo good! They really really really taste like traditional fries! I will absolutely make these again. Very satisfying! A coworker and I have both made this recipe in the last week. The only traumatic part is peeling the squash.
I mis-read the recipe and thought the cooking time was 20 minutes total and realized they needed more time to crisp up.
Mods: Olive oil instead of cooking spray, added seasonings of pepper and paprika.

Yummy!!!!! I would recommend making them a little larger than a shoestring french fry so you get a good texture on the outside.

Very good, but eat them hot, they're not so wonderful after they have cooled. My whole family likes these.

I had a pretty small butternut squash (about 9 oz. seeded) and I decided to use it to make these "fries" ... I am SO glad I did!! I don't know why anyone would choose to eat grease-laden potato fries when this exists as an option. I tossed the squash "sticks" in kosher salt and a bit of chili powder, and baked for about 45 minutes. I didn't flip it, either, but it didn't seem to make any difference; they were FANTASTIC. Well worth the pain of cutting through a raw winter squash. Thanks for posting!

These are so incrediably good! And with ketchup they do indeed pass muster as "real fries"!
Even my oh so picky DH, who normally doesn't like squash much at all, was totally impressed with these! And the kidlet, age 9, LOVES them. Made these just as recipes says. Thanks for sharing this recipe :)
