I prepared this dish for Thanksgiving. It's healthy and it tastes pretty good, but it looked brown...the butternut orange and the cranberry reds did not show too well. It also needs to be baked for well over an hour, not for 30 minutes. I recommend the squash be parboiled to cut the baking time. - 11/27/14
