Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- Turn acorn squash upside down onto a cookie sheet. Bake in a 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) oven until it begins to soften, approximately 30 to 45 minutes.
- Remove squash from the oven and turn onto a plate so that the flesh is facing upwards. Place butter and brown sugar into the squash, and place remaining squash over the other piece. Place squash in a baking dish (so the squash won't slide around too much) while baking.
- Place squash in the 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) oven and bake another 30 minutes.

ACORN SQUASH RINGS
Steps:
- Slice the squash into one and one half inch rings. Remove seeds and strings and place on buttered nonstick baking sheet. Top with remaining butter, season with salt and pepper and bake at 375 degrees for approximately 25 minutes, turning once, so that the squash is cooked through and still retains its shape. Serve with cranberry relish.
- TIP:
- VEGGIE SPAGHETTI
- Here's a great way to get your kids to eat squash! Just pierce the stem end of a spaghetti squash with a knife or metal skewer, and place on roasting sheet. Roast at 350 for about an hour, open, and create strands by pulling away the flesh with your fork. Serve with butter and Parmesan cheese or tomato sauce.

Steps:
- I like to buy the squash a month or two ahead of time to let it ripen, so that the squash turns yellow all the way around, not just on the bottom. That is when they are ripe. But if you didn't, don't let it stop you from making this recipe !
- Cut squash in 1/2 with the grooves.
- Remove the pulp with the seeds, and cut thin slice off back half, so the half lays steady-flat with out tipping, but try do not cut through the center.
- Place squash in greased oven proof pan.
- Place butter around edges of squash, and some in center, of each half.
- You will use 1 tablespoon for each half, more or less. This depends on how buttery you want it.
- Sprinkle with cinnamon, salt and pepper to taste, and then place bacon around edges of squash.
- Cover entire dish with foil, bake at 350 degrees, 45 minutes, or until done.
- To test for doneness, be careful when removing foil,steam will come out, fork test squash for tenderness, when done it will be soft all the way through, to skin.

MICROWAVE ACORN SQUASH
Just microwave! You don't have to use the oven. You can just do one acorn squash instead of two, if you choose. Pricking all over, then putting in the microwave for a few minutes to soften a little, makes it easier to cut.
