Acorn Squash with Apple

• 1 acorn squash
• 2 apples, cored and sliced
• 1 tablespoon butter
• 2 tablespoons brown sugar
• 1 tablespoon finely chopped walnuts
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1. To easily peel the acorn squash without losing a lot of vegetable, gently drop the squash in a large pot of boiling water, and boil for 15 minutes.
2. Pour off the boiling water and fill with cold water and let sit 5 minutes to cool.
3. When cool enough to handle, use a knife to slice off the peel on the ridges and use a teaspoon to dig out the peel in the valleys.
4. Slice the squash in half and remove the seeds and stem.
5. Then slice the halves into sections and finally cut into 1 inch chunks.
6. Place the squash chunks into a large microwave-safe bowl along with the apples.
7. Dot with pieces of butter.
8. Sprinkle the brown sugar, walnuts, salt and cinnamon over the top.
9. Cover with plastic wrap, and poke a few holes in it for ventilation.
10. Cook in the microwave for 7 1/2 minutes on full power.
11. Remove, uncover, and stir.
12. Return to the microwave, and cook for another 7 1/2 minutes on full power, until tender.
13. Serve hot.
