  1. For more years than I can count, I've made this but cooked the squash in the pan with the onion. It is at a high risk to get overdone quickly. Steaming it, then adding to the softened onions is the perfect answer for this. Thanks.
     
  2. I usually just saute the squash but this was a nice variation of that and made a great side dish. Thanks for sharing, breezermom.
     
  3. So easy to make and so delicious! Simple, but lots of flavor -- made a great side dish to our dinner tonight. Will definitely make this again as squash is abundant this time of year. Made for Zaars Stars, May, 2013.
