THIS says fall. Orange, crispy, with spices to make you swoon. Baked pieces look gorgeous on a beautiful serving platter. Or on your plate!
Ingredients:
2 acorn squash
canola oil
cinnamon
nutmeg
raisins (optional)
Directions:
1. Cut into halves or quarters & clean out the seeds.
2. Place pieces upside down in baking dish.
3. Pour 1/4 inch water into baking dish.
4. Microwave for 8 minutes, turning once.
5. Remove carefully (hot!).
6. Transfer *right-side up* to foil-covered oven platter.
7. Brush each semi-squishy piece with oil.
8. Then sprinkle with cinnamon & nutmeg, to taste.
9. Optional: Sprinkle raisins over the spices, remembering that raisins are high in sugar (in case diabetes is a concern).
