For a richer flavor, use freshly grated Parmesan cheese. Feel free to experiment with other seasonings, such as Italian seasoning or red pepper flakes, to customize the flavor to your liking. If you don't have an air fryer, you can roast the squash in the oven at 400 degrees F (200 degrees C) for about 15-20 minutes, or until tender and golden brown.
