Carol thank you for sharing a wonderful Fall recipe! I did not weigh my squash and now wish I had as dh and I cleaned out the dish and wonder if I really had in the amount you suggested. We are big veggie people though. I must have cut my pieces too big b/c it did take longer than a total cooking time of 30 minutes more like 40 minutes. Next time I would reduce the butter and honey by one tablespoon. Made for the Apple Events.

This was wonderful with our BBQ! I made a few substitutions. My daughter cannot eat dairy, so I used olive oil in place of butter. I used a package of Truvia instead of honey since we don't eat sugar products, so I didn't have honey. I had some chopped mixed nuts with which I topped it at the end of the baking time. I also didn'tt have an apple, but I thought that was a good idea, so I put in a diced pear for the last 10 minutes of ttl. 40 min. roasting time. Great! My grocery store sold the squash cubes, so it was a last sec idea!
