- 1/2 tsp coriander, grnd
- 3 x buttercup squash
- 2 c. red apples, peeled and minced
- 1 c. bananas, sliced

- 4 Tbsp. nonfat dry lowfat milk
- 6 pkt artificial sweetener
- Combine the seasoning mix ingredients in a small bowl.
- Cut all the squash in half crosswise and scrape out all the seeds and membrane.
- A melon baller works best for this but you can also use a spoon.
- Cut the meat from one squash into 1 inch cubes.
- Cut a thin slice from the ends of the other two squash shells so which they stand up without tipping.
- Preheat the oven to 400 F. Preheat a heavy 10 inch skillet, preferably nonstick, over high heat to avout 350F, about 4 min.
- Place the cubed squash, the apples, and the bananas in the skillet and cook, stirring occasionally for 4 min.
- Add in 1 c. of the apple juice and the seasoning mix.
- Cook, stirring occasionally, till most of the liquid has evaporated and begun sticking to the skillet, about 20 min.
- Transfer 2 c. of the mix from the skillet to a blender or possibly food processor.
- Add in 1/2 c. apple juice, the dry lowfat milk, and the artificial sweetener to the blender or possibly food processor and puree.
- If the mix is too thick to puree properly, add in another 1/4 c. juice.
- Return the pureed mix to the skillet and blend thoroughly with the other ingredients.
- Place the squash shells in a 10 inch round pie pan and fill each shell with 1/4 of the blended mix.
- Pour the remaining apple juice into the pan, and bake till the squash is fork tender, about 45 min.
- Serve hot.
