I adapted this recipe from the sticker that came on the squash when I bought it at the grocery store.
Ingredients:
1 squash (i used green acorn)
4 tablespoons butter
nutmeg
4 tablespoons honey
1/4 cup water
Directions:
1. Preheat over to 375
2. Cut squash in half and scoop out seeds.
3. Fill each half with 2 Tablespoons butter, 2 Tablespoons honey and sprinkle with nutmeg.
4. Put 1/4 cup water in shallow baking dish. (I use a 9x9 pyrex).
5. Put the squash in the dish CUT SIDE DOWN. Yes, some of the filling will slide into the water, but that's okay.
6. Bake for 40-45 minutes.
7. As an alternative, you can microwave the squash loosely covered for 12-15 minutes until tender.
