    Was a big hit as my vegetarian dish to take to my father's. My stepmother said they will be asking for it again at the next family get together. My vegetarian cousin was greatful for a wonderful new dish she could eat and took some home with her. I added an 1/8 cup of honey to squash mixture. - 11/26/09

    I tried this and did not like it much. I believe I was too heavy handed with the spices. I will try it again because it should be good. The plus side of not liking it much was I was never tempted to eat more than one serving. - 5/17/13

    Unique mix of flavors. For my tastes, maybe honey or a bit of b.suger needs to be added to the 'sauce'. A hit with the vegetarian crowd at my family gathering! - 4/2/12
