    List of Ingredients




    3 each, acorn and butternut squasges (1 to 1 1/4 lb each)
    1/2 tsp. salt
    1/4 tsp. pepper
    1/2 cup water
    parsley sprigs for garnish, optional

    LEMON BUTTER:
    4 tbsp. butter or maragine, softened
    1/4 cup light brown sugar, firmly packed
    1 tbsp. lemon juice
    1 tsp. ground ginger

    Recipe



    Heat oven to 400 degrees. Have ready a large roasting pan or 2 13x9-in baking pans. Prepare Lemon Butter: Mix all ingredirnts together until smooth and well blended. Cut squashes in half lengthwise with a heavy knife.** Use a spoon to remove seeds. Spread cut sides with Lemon Butter and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Place, cut side up, in pan(s), overlapping as needed. Add water, cover with foil and bake 40 minutes or until squashes are tender when pieced. Remove to a large plate and garnish with parsley sprigs.

    Tip: Microwave the squashes until slightly softened to make them easier to cut in half. (This also works really well when you have to peel squash.)
