By connotation, spiced != spicy. But I digress… Fairly standard winter squash recipe. Since I was roasting the main dish anyway, I peeled & cubed the squash, then roasted at 400F for ~35 minutes. I also used honey instead of agave, for better fructose/glucose balance.

Curious that you use microwave for preparation given at how much it kills the nutrients…I would really suggest another method.
