This was lovely! Substituted butternut pumpkin for sweet potato and still absolutely delicious! Just served with sourdough toast and a few steamed veg. Will make again.

Oh yum! This was terrific, Jubes! And I was a card-carrying feta hater! No more - the sweetness of the sweet potatoes (duh) balanced the tartness of the feta perfectly. Made for ZWT9
