Adding chicken broth after the squash was incorporated with the onions really helped give the dish a much nicer consistency. Also, try adding a splash of balsamic vinegar to boost the flavor.

it needs some sort of sauce or gravy. it's too dry by itself. it might make a good soup.

Rich flavorful and nutritionally superior to other dressings that might accompany hardy meats and roasted fowl. Onions and spices provide a flavor boost that would make squash a more attractive dish for people who otherwise would resist trying it.

Took the advice of another rater and added some chicken broth - it was fantastic! Best acorn squash recipe I've ever tried. Will definitely be making again!

This is very tasty! I added cinnamon and used molasses instead of brown sugar and it turned out great. It was a bit dry, maybe it needs a bit more oil or butter. I'll make it again. Thank you.

I made this for a potluck, for a woman who wanted a savory squash dish instead of the usual sweet type. Didn't have coriander on hand, so I used a bit more onion, garlic and nutmeg. It turned out *quite* well, I got multiple compliments and not a bit was left over!

This was great. I added some apple sauce for extra moisture (instead of extra butter) at it was a big hit.
