Great dish. Wonderful combination of flavors. I would live to try it on sweet potatoes also. I had it as a side dish to tibs. Fantastic lunch. :-)

We loved this squash, especially the little zip the mustard gave to it! I loved that I didn't have to peel that tough skin on the squash! I made it with Lindasbusykitchen's Linda's Best Beef Pot Roast in the Crock Pot, mashed potatoes and biscuits for an awesome dinner!
