Instructions

1. Prepare squash Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Peel squash using a vegetable peeler. Cut each squash in half and scoop out the seeds. Cut squash into small chunk and place in a bowl. Add salt, pepper, oil and pomegranate molasses to the squash and gently mix with a wooden spoon. Roast for 30-40 minutes, until squash is until flesh is fork-tender and lightly browned.

3. Serve tacos Remove squash from oven and cover to keep warm. Turn oven heat down to 300 degrees. Wrap a stack of tortillas first in a damp dish towel and then in aluminum foil. Place in the oven for 5 minutes. Once tortillas are warm remove from oven. Add a spoonful of squash and salsa to each tortilla. Enjoy!
