I truly loved this! The combination of peanuts and squash was not something I'd thought of before, but it was really good. The brown sugar complements the saltiness of the peanuts, so I'd definitely use it, even though it said optional in my directions....funny, not showing that now! I'm hoping I'll have lots of squash from my garden this year so I can enjoy this recipe some more! Made for photo tag!

I thought this was good, but Mr B thoght it was very good! We liked the contrast of the soft squash with the crunchy peanuts. I note the brown sugar is an optional ingredient, but the sugar adds an interesting caramalised effect, which I think would be a shame to miss. So I strongly recommend adding this optional ingredient. Just take care it doesn't 'catch' at the end of the cooking.
