Save yourself some time in the kitchen and toss the squash in the microwave for a truly quick dish. Sometimes squash can be a bit tasteless. I conquer this by adding a bit of mango chutney and coconut. It really makes the flavor pop. -Deirdre Cox, Kansas City, Missouri

This recipe was a complete disaster. The squash was undercooked and the sauce was curdled.

This recipe was a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I would omit the sugar next time.

I'm not a big fan of coconut, but I really enjoyed this recipe. The coconut milk added a subtle sweetness to the dish.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover squash. I always have extra squash after Halloween, and this is a great way to use it up.

I was disappointed with this recipe. The squash was tough and the sauce was too thin.

This dish was easy to make and very tasty. I used canned coconut milk and it worked just fine.
