My favorite way to eat butternut squash is actually in soup. If you're interested, I think I have my recipe already typed up on the computer somewhere and I could post it here. The soup freezes very well.
My MIL usually cuts it in half, sprays oil on the halves, and then bakes them cut side down in the oven on a moderately high temperature until the insides are soft. Then you scoop out the insides and mix them with whatever tickles your fancy.
Some people go sweet and add a little honey or cinnamon or whatever, but I prefer the savoury, so I usually add salt and pepper.
