Receta Baked Acorn Squash with Pine Nuts and Garlic
Delicious and beautiful side dish. Pile it up and serve it for company! (Or eat it with your hands in front of the baseball game, like me.)
It is easier to slice the squash if you microwave it on high for a few minutes - just stick the whole thing in the microwave as is.
I played with all the measurements to fit the size of my squash and used more pine nuts and olive oil.
