"This was very good. I didn't have fresh ginger, so used ground. Otherwise, made the recipe as called for. Next time I may use brown sugar substitute to cut the calories even more, but very tasty and very healthful. The entire family liked them. A definite keeper.""

"Good feedback from the entire family. Will definitely make it again. I think it would be best with a sausage stuffing. We had just the traditional bread/sage stuffing and I think it would have been better with a bit of sausage. Of course, one could always brown some up and add it into the stuffing when preparing this dish.

"Totally delicious. My family really loved this - especially my husband. I hadn't been able to get him to eat squash, but he really loved the slight sweetness that it added, so I belive I've found a convert. This will become one of my winter go-to dishes. Excellent!

"Excellent! I ended up with 8 cups of apples (using 5 large Granny Smith's) but didn't really increase the other ingredients, other than putting a bit more sugar in. I also didn't have dark brown sugar, so added about a tablespoon of molasses to make up for it. This was a very nice departure from the the apple crisp that I usually make. Didn't have candied ginger, so just put a bit of fresh nutmeg in the whipped cream. All in all, totally delicious and the family all loved it! Will definitely make again.

"This was excellent! I had never fixed brussel sprouts before, but felt compelled to give it a try. Even my picky teenagers liked it! The only change I made was to add a bit of chicken stock to the pan and cooked it down a bit (no more than a 1/3 cup) before putting in the oven. Also, to get them truly carmelized, it took longer than the 3-4 minutes called for in the recipe. When making again, I will plan on at least 10 minutes and maybe a bit longer than that.
