    This recipe came together very easily. I was easy on the pesto, based on other reviews and it was good. I must say this was a surprise as even teenagers enjoyed this dish.

    when i pulled my pan out of the oven at christmas, there was enough oil on the top to send the clampett's packin' for californy. it smelled great, so while my friends talked, i unobservedly tilted all the excess oil out into the sink (i know i know but it looked better than doing it into the garbage, you know? and put it on the buffet. others seemed to keep saying that they loved it, but it just didn't seem to go anywhere with me.no real textures, no flavors melting, no swans a singing. i kept thinking how much better la de laurentis' roasted fennel with parmesan would have been. i thank her for getting me excited about making the butternut squash though.

    The concept seemed wonderful. I made this as one of my side dishes for Christmas. The cheese, butter, and pesto created a lot of oil and looked unattractive.

    Also, mixing the pesto and squash did not have the blended effect that I saw on the show.

    I was disappointed with this dish.

    Well after trying two out of the three featured recipes on this episode, I understand the title- "sinful vegetables." This dish was soooo good, rich, and creamy, not to mention easy. And once again, my husband loved it! The pesto/squash combination was right on in my book, and I was leery of it at first. Delicious!

    I thought this dish was only average. The nature of squash is that, in my opinion, it's too runny for this dish. I'd make it again but substitue mashed potatoes for the squash.

    I've made this many times, it's easy and reheats well. I go heavy on the pesto, just make sure you drain off any excess olive oil first.

    Who would have thought that butternut squash and pesto woudl go together so well? This side dish has become one of our weekly staples. It is super easy and fantastic. The parmasean on top gives it a great flavor.

    I really liked the flavors together, but there's something about pureed squash that just doesn't do it for me. Traumatic baby food memories, maybe? LOL My husband loved it, though. I did not use the butter, instead substituted butter-flavored Pam. Next time, butter! Also, next time I make it, I will use my homemade pesto. The Bertolli jarred pesto didn't have as much flavor as my homemade walnut-basil pesto and with mine I can better control the fat content.
