I was doing this already, but I don't put the cornmeal in it. I also left the bag in the fridge over night or a couple of days then cooked it. I think it really had time to soak up the olive oil and seasoning. Very good.

Squash is one of my favorite vegetables and this is the way I always prepare it, except that I don't add the cornmeal; I just don't think it's necessary. The dish is delicious without it.
