  1. 1

    Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).

  2. 2

    Brush both sides of the squash with oil; sprinkle with salt and set it cut-side up in a baking pan. Cover the pan tightly with aluminum foil.

  3. 3

    Roast in the preheated oven for 20 minutes. Uncover the pan; roast until the squash is tender, about 35 minutes more. Let cool slightly, about 5 minutes. Scrape the squash flesh into a large bowl with a fork; toss with Parmesan cheese.
