Acorn Squash A La Kree Recipes

ACORN SQUASH A LA KREE

Steps:

• Cut the squash in half and remove the seeds and stringy parts.
• Place them cut-side-up in a microwave-safe baking dish (You may need to cut a tiny wedge out of the bottom so they'll sit up straight).
• Place 2 tsp (about 2/3 Tbsp) margarine into each squash cavity and sprinkle with approximately 1 Tbsp brown sugar (you can use more or less to taste).
• Salt and pepper to taste.
• Cover the entire dish with plastic wrap and microwave it on HIGH for 13-16 minutes or until the squash are tender when poked with a fork.
• Remove the plastic wrap and let them cool for at least 5 minutes before serving.
• Note: You can also experiment with adding additional spices; it's great sprinkled with cinnamon!

ACORN SQUASH

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Turn acorn squash upside down onto a cookie sheet. Bake in a 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) oven until it begins to soften, approximately 30 to 45 minutes.
• Remove squash from the oven and turn onto a plate so that the flesh is facing upwards. Place butter and brown sugar into the squash, and place remaining squash over the other piece. Place squash in a baking dish (so the squash won't slide around too much) while baking.
• Place squash in the 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) oven and bake another 30 minutes.
