Sweet Acorn Squash

Ingredients, directions and serving information for Sweet Acorn Squash.

• 2 acorn squash
• 1/2 cup orange juice
• 1 teaspoon cinnamon
• 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg

1. Wash hands with soap and water.
2. Put each squash in the microwave. Heat for 1 1/2 minutes on high. This will soften the squash and make it easier to cut.

5. Pour 2 tablespoons of juice into each half of the squash. Spread it evenly on the inside of each squash.
6. Bake at 400 degrees F for 30 to 45 minutes, until tender.
7. Season with cinnamon and nutmeg and serve.
