I don't think I cooked the squash long enough. It was still a little bit crunchy.

This dish is a bit too spicy for my taste. I'll try using less red pepper flakes next time.

I found the squash to be a little bit bland. I think next time I'll try marinating it in some Italian dressing before cooking it.

I would have liked the sauce to be a little bit thicker. Next time, I'll try adding a cornstarch slurry.
