Spiced Squash with Yogurt Dressing

You know dinner was good when your husband tells you everything was cooked to perfection and that the items together were a perfect blend.  Thank you, Dear!
 
Now, I was just trying to find a way to serve my son his new found love - baked potatoes, and use the Delicata Squash we received.  As luck would have it I found a great new method for cooking chicken thighs.
