I'm not a big fan of butternut squash, but I decided to give this recipe a try anyway. I'm so glad I did! The squash was roasted to perfection and the shallots added a delicious caramelized flavor. I will definitely be making this dish again.

This dish was a bit too sweet for my taste, but my husband loved it. I think next time I'll use less shallots or maybe add some lemon juice to balance out the sweetness.
