YUM! This recipe is phenomenal! Even my DH, who said he doesn't like squash, was gobbling it up and suggesting we make it for Thanksgiving. This recipe is definitely a keeper. I made it like the directions said, only I halved the squash, scraped it out of the shells when baked, and mashed them all together to mix the flavors evenly. Mmmm.
