I absolutely loved this recipe. I have never cooked or even ate squash before so when I came across this recipe I thought hey why not... It was so amazing and delicious my entire family loved it included my picky 6 year old and a fussy 2 year old. I will now be buying squash on a regular basis just to make this recipe... LOVED IT!!!
