    List of Ingredients




    2 medium-size acorn squash
    1 cup fresh or frozen cranberries, chopped
    1 cup diced apple
    1/4 cup brown sugar
    3 tbsp. melted butter
    1/2 tsp. grated orange peel

    Recipe



    Conventional oven:
    Preheat oven to 350ºF. Cut squash into quarters; remove seeds. Place squash, cut side up in a greased baking pan. Lightly brush each wedge with olive oil; sprinkle with salt and pepper. Cover with foil and bake for 30 minutes.

    In a medium bowl, mix together remaining ingredients. Spoon cranberry-apple mixture into squash, dividing evenly among wedges. Return to oven and bake, covered, an additional 15-20 minutes or until apples and squash are tender.

    Variation for Microwave oven:
    Cut squash into quarters; remove seeds. Place cut side up in microwaveable dish. Lightly brush with oil; sprinkle with salt and pepper. Spoon cranberry mixture into squash. Cover with microwave-safe plastic wrap. Cook on HIGH for 10-15 minutes or until squash is tender. Let stand for 5 minutes.*

    *For smaller microwave ovens, cook 4 squash quarters at a time for 8 to 10 minutes. Repeat with remaining squash.

    Makes 4 servings.
