MICROWAVE SQUASH
Steps:
- To cook squash in the microwave, cut squash in 1/2, scoop out the seeds as if you were cleaning cantaloupe only it will be a little harder. Lay cut side down on a piece of microwave safe plastic wrap placed directly on microwave bottom or plate. Cook on high in 5 minute intervals until completely softened and cooked through, about 5 to 7 minutes for 1/2 an acorn squash. Cook times will vary depending upon the size and variety of your squash.
CRANBERRY-PECAN MICROWAVE ACORN SQUASH
This is really good for the holidays, plus it's quick and easy. Microwaving first makes it a lot easier to slice the squash.

Steps:
- Pierce each squash in several places to allow steam to escape, then place 2 inches apart in the microwave. Microwave on high for 6 minutes. Remove to a cutting board.
- Cut each squash in half crosswise; remove and discard seeds. Arrange halves with cut-sides down on a microwave-safe plate.
- Cover tightly with plastic wrap and microwave until tender, 7 to 9 minutes. Remove stems and cut a thin slice from the pointed ends to prevent tipping. Flip so cut-sides are facing up.
- Mix graham cracker crumbs, pecans, butter, brown sugar, and nutmeg in a bowl. Spoon 1/4 of the mixture into each squash half.
- Microwave, uncovered, until filling is heated through, 2 to 5 minutes.
- Serve topped with cranberry sauce.

CRANBERRY STUFFED ACORN SQUASH
From a Cranberry Cookbook put out by the Westport-Grayland Washington Chamber of Commerce. (The Cranberry Coast) NOTE: Everyone said this made too much filling for 1 squash, so I changed the recipe to 2 squashes, to serve 4. Easy to halve for 2 servings. Microwave instructions included at end of regular instructions.

CRANBERRY-FILLED SQUASH (MICROWAVE ONLY!)
This is an adopted recipe. I've not yet made this, but can vouch for the goodness of the combination of cranberry and squash. I suppose this would be good Thanksgiving fare for the wayward college student who for some reason must stay in the dorms over the holiday since it's entirely cooked in the microwave!
