  • Lay the rings on the sheet and spray the tops with the cooking spray. Sprinkle with salt.
    Kosher salt
  • Roast for 50-55 minutes flipping once about halfway through.

Notes

  • You can totally spice these any way you like but I found just a sprinkle of kosher salt perfect.
  • Acorn squash is on their list of “free” foods but if I tally up the nutritional information I get about 7 points for the whole batch. This is why I don’t really count points or follow Weight Watchers anymore. There’s just not enough consistency and I don’t want to stress over something like squash. It’s not worth the energy. 
  • I'm counting this as 2 servings.
