Helpful tips:
*Make sure to pat dry all your veggies before adding to the dish! Excess moisture is your enemy. For frozen spinach: thaw then wring out in a towel the extra water. Be sure to thaw any frozen veggies you choose to use and get as much moisture out as possible; this makes using fresh ideal.
**A tip on dicing your butternut squash or sweet potato: spiralize or (buy in spirals) then chop the spirals for the perfect size and width for this recipe! But of course, you can also dice as usual too.
