A quick, simple side dish that is full of flavor. My daughter and I love this way of preparing squash.
Ingredients
- 2 small acorn squashes – peeled, seeded, and cut into 1-inch cubes
- 6 fresh sage leaves, shredded
- ½ cup butter, cut in small pieces
- salt and ground black pepper to taste
Directions
Step 1
Put squash in a microwave-safe bowl; add sage. Dot squash with butter pieces; season with salt and pepper. Cover bowl tightly with plastic wrap.
Step 2
Cook in microwave oven set on High for 5 minutes. Stir squash to coat in melted butter while checking cubes for softness. Replace plastic and continue to cook until completely tender, 2 to 4 minutes.
