MICROWAVE ACORN SQUASH
Just microwave! You don't have to use the oven. You can just do one acorn squash instead of two, if you choose. Pricking all over, then putting in the microwave for a few minutes to soften a little, makes it easier to cut.

Steps:
- Slice the squash into one and one half inch rings. Remove seeds and strings and place on buttered nonstick baking sheet. Top with remaining butter, season with salt and pepper and bake at 375 degrees for approximately 25 minutes, turning once, so that the squash is cooked through and still retains its shape. Serve with cranberry relish.
- TIP:
- VEGGIE SPAGHETTI
- Here's a great way to get your kids to eat squash! Just pierce the stem end of a spaghetti squash with a knife or metal skewer, and place on roasting sheet. Roast at 350 for about an hour, open, and create strands by pulling away the flesh with your fork. Serve with butter and Parmesan cheese or tomato sauce.
ACORN SQUASH RINGS
I love to fix acorn squash this way. It's pretty and impressive to serve, a tasty combination of fruit and vegetable and my favorite side dish when I make meat loaf. My husband, who was a "meat and potatoes" man when we were married, requests this dish often.
