This is a really simple side-dish that comes across as a lot more fancy that it is. Get your hands on pre-diced squash and fresh grated Parmesan and you can cut the prep time to practically nothing.

Notes
Did you know, if you wanted to be crazy-healthy, you could ground up almonds in a blender and substitute them for the breadcrumbs? I have no interest in being crazy-healthy but I just saw this in a magazine and it seemed intriguing. If you have a lot of almonds, of course.
