    Well...the squash tasted great, but we thought the Greek yogurt and arugula didn't necessarily pair perfectly with the rest of the dish. I won't rate this recipe as it stirs up vegetable prep unpleasantness. I was peeling some less perfect spots off my squash and the peeler slipped resulting in 2 stitches to my thumb.

    The first recipe I made from this book and it was great. Served as a side with roasted sausage and was very easy to cook everything in the oven at once (on separate pans). I def think you need the yogurt and arugula to balance the sweet and tangy squash. Might benefit from some pepitas next time for crunch.

    I was looking for a veggie side for pot roast but since I was bringing it to someone else's house, wanted something that could be eaten room temp. Although I'm sure it would be better hot, it was perfectly delicious room temp. I doubled the amount of squash (butternut unpeeled) but didn't double the liquid for braising, greens, or yogurt and it was perfect. Truthfully, the only thing I accurately measured was the braising liquid (using better than bouillon veggie for broth) and all other things were by look/taste. If you're an experienced cook, you know how you like your veggies seasoned so use your usual amount with a little held back to account for the salt in the broth that will concentrate as it reduces. It took a bit longer to get color on my squash but once I turned to convection it browned perfectly so if you have a convection option definitely use it. Such a lovely, simple (prep-wise), and delectable recipe that had people swooning.
