You can't beat this combination of sweet squash, zippy salsa and eye-catching orange color for a deliciously different and fun side dish, assures Marilyn Young of Riverside, Ohio. Ingredients:
1 pound butternut squash, peeled, seeded and cubed |
1/4 cup finely chopped onion |
1 garlic clove, minced |
1 tablespoon butter |
2/3 cup salsa |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese, divided |
Directions:
1. In a large saucepan, bring 1 in. of water to a boil; place squash in a steamer basket over water. Reduce heat; cover and steam for 10-15 minutes or until tender.
2. Meanwhile, in a large saucepan, saute onion and garlic in butter until tender. Stir in the salsa, salt and squash cubes. Spoon half of the mixture into a greased 1-qt. baking dish. Sprinkle with 1/4 cup of cheese. Top with the remaining squash mixture.
3. Cover and bake at 400° for 15 minutes. Uncover; top with remaining cheese. Bake 5 minutes longer or until cheese is melted. Yield: 2 servings.
