Hey, Mel...

Costco this week had containers of cubed peeled butternut squash for sale. First time I've seen them offer this.

So I bought some and made a bit of it with our Salmon 2 nights ago. What I did because it was a small amount...was steam it.
I have a small microwave steamer, and I did them for 8min on high and they came out very flavorful.

You might try that way instead of boiling. When I make whole squash, I bake them face down after splitting in half until fork tender. But cubed like this, the steamer seemed easier. (you brush them with a bit of butter before baking--this brings out the flavor more).
