Instructions
Start by cooking your butternut squash.
Poke holes in the skin with a fork. Place in microwave for 3 minutes. Remove carefully, as it will be hot.
Cut off skin and cut squash into 1 inch cubes.
In a separate bowl, mix together your seasonings. Toss in butternut cubes to coat.
Prepare your taco shells (or use pre-purchased shells) See directions at Daily Dish Magazine.
In a hot pan, warm 1 tablespoon oil and saute the butternut until browned on outside.
Spoon your squash into your cooked shells and garnish with lettuce, tomato and avocado.
