Absolutely delicious!!! I had no idea what to expect since I've never made butternut squash before, but this was so delicious I wish I had made more! I didn't add the new potatoes since I'm not allowed to eat them right now, but I'm sure that they would have been a great addition! This recipe is a keeper!!!
