One trick they don't tell you online, but they do in the magazine: to make peeling an entire clove of garlic much quicker, soak it in boiling hot water for about 10 minutes first! I baked some chicken breasts to go along with it, at the same time the squash was roasting. This is definitely a "keeper"!
