Unusual but good
Rated: 4 stars out of 5

One complaint about the recipe, Paula does not specify a size/wight for the squash or an approximate size when dicing the... squash. The butternut squash I am usually able to find at the grocery store are pretty big, so I decided to use just one very large squash instead of three. I think I may have had a little less squash then intended, but not by much (it easily filled a 2 qt. casserole). I also went with a fairly small dice (about 1/4 - 1/2 inch pieces) so the squash would pre-cook more quickly, and I pressure cooked the squash and onion pieces for about 5 minutes in a cup of water for the first step. The flavor has a slightly Indian flair with the curry and coconut milk. It also reminded me a bit of pumpkin pie, though it is not very sweet.Read more

Even my coworkers liked it!

I left a container marked "Help yourself" in the refridgerator and when I returned it was almost empty! I guess that says it... all. Also, it was super easy to make, although cutting the squash is certainly hard on one's wrists.Read more

A great accompaniment for pork ribs
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I added 1/2c packed brown sugar to give this casserole alittle more sweetness. Mix the brown sugar with the egg mixture. ... Butter the casserole dish and toss the coconut and raisins in melted butter before topping. This is extra calories, but worth it. A simple recipe for butternut squash and really yummy.Read more

I had to doctor it up a bit. Maybe I used to much squash? It was edible but nothing I would searve to a guest.

I love finding a new side dish
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

This treatment of butternut squash is terrific, and Paula managed it with no butter! I'm always on the lookout for a new... and unusual side dish and this one is really excellent The recipe makes a lot - I'm planning on freezing a bunch of it and I hope it works out.Read more
