I love squash and this is a simple, quick way to prepare it. It's perfect for days when time is in short supply. I like this recipe because there is no additonal sugar. This recipe is from Jean Pare's Company's Coming Microwave Cooking. Ingredients:
2 small acorn squash |
4 teaspoons butter or 4 teaspoons margarine, use vegan margarine if desired |
salt, to taste |
pepper, freshly ground, to taste |
Directions:
1. Microwave squash on high (100%) for 2 minutes.
2. Pierce squash several times and microwave on high (100%) for 15 to 18 minutes, turning 1/4 turn every 4 minutes, until soft and fork tender.
3. Slice into 1 inch thick rings and remove fibers and seeds.
4. Arrange in a circle on a large plate.
5. Microwave butter in a small container on high (100%) for 20 seconds until melted and brush over tops of squash rings.
6. Cover with waxed paper and microwave an additional 2 to 4 minutes on high (100%) until very hot.
