This is how my mother would prepare acorn squash when I was a child, except that we didn't mash it together- so yummy! Now as an adult, I prefer to steam them in the microwave (much faster) then put a little dab of butter inside the well along with the brown sugar and eat it as is.

This is super simple but very comforting and filling (and cheap!). We added a little butter along with the brown sugar and ate the squash directly out of the shells. Great, easy recipe.

This was a very nice basic recipe! I've never cooked acorn squashes before, and this gave me an idea what else is possible with this squash — a great place to start with!

Love the brown sugar - I confess that I added a teaspoon of butter too. Using a fork I mashed the squash in the shell. Baked it for 1 hour (it was a bit large). Looked attractive and tasted great- Thanks Sarah for posting
