What do the Xs in this recipe stand for? I have no idea what's supposed to be the amount. Thanks

sean

x = salt and pepper to taste. If you are a salt restricted diet use very little to none, if you like more pepper add more according to your own taste. For this recipe my tastes would range from 1/4 tsp to 1 tbsp depending on the size of the squash
