    i made this as a main course meal and added sausage to it, i also used a can of lite coconut milk instead of cream, i do the same thing when make butternut soup. its kinda bland but the squash should slip by my family with out notice.i also roasted my own squash and it did make a ton!!

    I roasted my own butternut squash with some honey, and the recipe turned out great!

    Fantastic recipe. Tasty and takes the guilt out of mac n cheese. Even better the second day. Throw some crunchy onions on top for some added texture.

    I agree with other reviewers that the portion is big. I used a home baked butternut squash instead of a frozen one and still the recipe turned out quite bland. Just thought a healthier version of mac and cheese deserves a try : but definitely not a keeper.

    Surprisingly tastey!! It was a perfect meal to sneak in veggies for my two toddlers...however, I kept stealing bites! FYI, I used Ina Garten's recipe for butternut squash.

    Delish. First off, this makes a HUGE portion. I would half it for a small family. I also added some garlic to the onions as well as some maple syrup to finish it off. We can't eat enough of it!

    I tried this for the first time today and all I can say is no more boxed mac and cheese for us. I am a visual learner so being able to watch a video that was under 5 minutes long and actually see how to mix everything together was great for me. I watched the video several times before I started to make this dish and played it while I was making it as a handy step by step tool. Thanks Rachael!

    I love it, but my 19-month-old ADORES this dish!! This is good and creamy and the thyme is really nice, even using dried thyme. I used some leftover squash that I roasted up for hiding in my son's food - now I have extra in the freezer to make this again!

    I made this tonight and everyone loved it!! Couldn't believe that mac and cheese could taste so good and have healthy ingredients! Didn't use cream, used skim milk and 1/2 the butter. Turned out delicious!! Will make it again!!

    My family loved it. My one year old couldn't stop eating!! I used some fresh butternut squash I had on hand. I'm not sure if that makes a difference, but it was delicious!

    Thanks!
