Tasty Veggie
I love winter squash - all varieties. We recently bought an acorn squash and there was a sticker with a recipe stuck to the side of the squash. It sounded good, so I tried it.
If you happen to like acorn squash, I think you’ll find this really good. This recipe will make it off the sticker and into my recipe collection.
Acorn Squash
Cut the squash in half, remove seeds and strings.
Place both halves upside down in a pan with 1/4 inch of hot water.
Bake at 400 degrees for 35 minutes.
Turn squash over, sprinkle lightlywith salt (optional).
Add 1 tablespoon orange marmalade and 1 teaspoon butter, melted and mixed together. (I used a little more of both)
Spoon mixture over the edge of the squash halves. Place under a broiler for five minutes or until lightly browned.
Have a great weekend - We’re expecting warmer weather today, and back to cold winter tomorrow. I intend to enjoy today.
