From Real Simple Magazine June 2008. This is such a refreshing and light summer salad. If you find the lemon too strong just reduce the amount to your tastes.

I'm allergic to nuts, so I substituted the pine nuts with sunflower seeds. It was still delicious!

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover squash. I had some roasted butternut squash in the fridge, and it worked perfectly.

I thought the lemon sauce was a bit too sour. Next time, I'll try using less lemon juice.

The flavors in this dish were amazing, but I found the texture of the squash to be a bit too firm.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my squash ribbons turned out mushy. Maybe I cooked them for too long?
