Recipe: Sweet Acorn Squash

As a kid we had Acorn Squash during the fall season.  My Mom made this easy Sweet Acorn Squash recipe that our family enjoys.   The recipe is really easy and tastes delicious.   Another great thing about this recipe is it using only two additional ingredients which are typically in your kitchen already.  If you are looking at adding an acorn squash to your dinner table soon try this recipe.

Sweet Acorn Squash Recipe:

• 1 Acorn Squash (halved)
• 2 tablespoons Brown Sugar
• 2 tablespoons Butter

Cut the acorn squash in half.  Empty the seeds out of the acorn squash.  Put 1 tablespoon of brown sugar and butter in each cavity.  Poke the “meat” of the squash lightly with a fork to make sure the butter / brown sugar soak into it (just make sure not to poke too hard and go all the way through the skin because the mix could drain out).  Bake at 350 degrees for 45 minutes or until the it is tender. Scoop out the squash as you serve it at the table (it tastes best hot).
