Weeknight Cooking

In the years before I finally got this consultant job and started working exclusively from home, I would board a train to Los Angeles at 6:30am and would return home between 5:30 and 6pm every day. While keeping me caught up on books and magazines, this commuting was really cutting into my cooking time. I amassed a collection of 10 minute preparation meals that I could have on the table fairly quickly. This one for chicken sausage and butternut squash is great, I got it from Epicurious (via Bon Appetit) and it couldn't be easier!! I use chicken/apple sausage and already cut up squash from Trader Joe's, lots of garlic, and fresh herbs.

Apparently between the last time I made it an Friday, the 9 year old has decided he doesn't like butternut squash. One of his classmates must have told him it was yucky.
