Cranberry Stuffed Acorn Squash

acorn squash

Ingredients

Acorn squash – 1/2 per person

2 tablespoon brown sugar

2 tablespoons cinnamon

1/2 can whole cranberry sauce per whole squash

Butter optional

Directions

Wash the squash.  Poke several holes in each one with a knife or skewer.  Cook the whole squash in the microwave for 5-6 minutes until it is soft enough to cut in half.   After you have cut the squash in half, trim enough off of each end so that the squash will sit upright.  Be careful not to cut too  much or you could make a hole.  Then clean out the seeds.

Place  1 tsp of butter (optional) in each half and then  fill with as much whole cranberry sauce as you want.  Sprinkle with brown sugar and cinnamon.

That’s it.  A BEAUTIFUL, super easy, healthy dish.
