I've seen so many recipes lately that include butternut squash ('tis the season) that I really wanted to give it a try. I knew it would have to be over a weekend since it usually takes too much time for a work night dinner. Thankfully, I had today (Columbus Day) off and B had a play date with a friend so I had some extra time to cook. I made the butternut squash for tomorrow night's side dish and will just quickly re-heat it tomorrow. The hardest part of this recipe is the peeling and cutting of the tough butternut squash! After that was done, the rest is a breeze! I found the recipe
here and I have sampled 1 piece. I'm looking forward to tomorrow night's dinner already!!
