If you're looking for a simple squash recipe, this is it. I would advise stirring in another tablespoon or two of brown sugar when you mash everything together in the bowl - and I'd increase the time frmo 10 minutes to more like 12. Finally, instead of mashing the squash in a bowl after cooking, I'd do the mashing in a small square pan - it's easier to mash things together than in a bowl. Then sprinkle some more brown sugar on the top and serve!

This was quick and easy! Looked great, too. I added dried cranberries and walnuts and served @ Thanksgiving dinner.

This was a standard when I was growing up...especially the year my mom planted acorn squash and we had kind of a glut on it. We always liked it. She would usually put some orange juice into them as well.

Mom used to make these all the time. I am not a fan of Microwave ovens, as I believe they destroy the nutritional values of food, so I prefer baking them in the oven or on the grill.

This is a basic, solid recipe for acorn squash.

I served this as dessert after a light lunch to company. Everyone loved it! It is perfect as written but I added a few Craisins and chopped walnuts before serving just for color and texture. Excellent. Thanks for sharing!

This was delicious - similiar to how my mom makes it, but much less time. I added some cinnamon and a drop of vanilla. Will definitely make again!

This was fantastic! I've done it this way before, but this time I cut the squash, placed it cut side down on a foil lined cookie sheet sprayed with nonstick cooking spray and baked for 45 minutes (I had 3 squash) then took them out, flipped them over and sprinkled with salt and pepper and cinnamon, put in 1/2 tbsp of butter then about a TBSP of brown sugar in each. Then I just placed a piece of foil over the top and baked for about 15 more minutes. My daughters boyfriend, who hates veggies and won't eat them announced "I like this!" then proceeded to eat it all. Amazing!
