Tip: When selecting butternut squash, look for those that have hard, tough rinds and are heavy for their size.
Tip: Peeling the squash will be easier if you first microwave it on High for 3 minutes.
Tip: Make it your way! Use your favorite nut and vary the cranberries with raisins, golden raisins, or even chopped dried apricots.
This is the vegetable dish that Melissa Turner made for my birthday dinner. Very yummy.
Sounds so yummy and I just happen to have some butternut squash! We'll give this a try for Sunday dinner!
We had this for dinner on Mom's birthday! It was really yummy!
Yay, that's so fun. It is really good. I love the hint of orange juice.
I made a large dish of these yummy vegetables and so there were leftovers. After sitting in the refrigerator for a couple of days, uneatened, I decided to make a cream soup with them. Dad and I enjoyed it. I pureed the entire recipe with 2 Tbsp. flour, milk and a little cream. I heated it and added some jalapeno cheese to it. It had a hint of sweet and spicy.
