    A new way to utilize fresh squash--I also mixed in peppers, mushrooms, and parsley. Wonderful flavors!! - 4/12/08

    This is a good one! Thanks. I used frozen organic butternut squash and steamed it in the bag before adding to the dish. I also added broccoli & mushrooms. - 10/8/12

    Love butternut squash but really did not care for this recipe. I felt like no matter how long I cooked the squash for, it wasn't done, and I was concerned about everything else being over done. I did add some nutmeg, and the onion/garlic/nutmeg/salt/pepper combo did make for tasty chicken. - 4/14/08

    This recipe is even healthier than it reads. SP has an error in their value for butternut squash, listing it as nearly 500mg/cup. It's actually less than 10mg/cup. - 4/12/08

    It was tasty but it was missing something. I might add nutmeg if I make it again. It's also fairly time consuming if you don't buy pre-cubed squash (I didn't). - 10/12/07

    I made this for dinner on Sunday night. Monday, my husband asked if there were any leftovers and Tuesday he wanted me to make it again for dinner! We LOVED it! Great flavors! - 3/13/07
