I'm not a big fan of butternut squash, but this dish was actually pretty good. The ginger really helped to balance out the sweetness of the squash.

This dish is a bit too spicy for my taste, but I still enjoyed it. I would recommend using less ginger next time.

This dish is a great way to use up leftover butternut squash. It's also a great way to get your kids to eat their vegetables.

I made this dish for Thanksgiving dinner and everyone raved about it. It was the perfect side dish to our turkey.

This dish was a big disappointment. The butternut squash was tough and the ginger was overpowering.
