- Cuisine: "Vegetarian"
- NOTES : Tested 2001-12: Halved the recipe; substituted an acorn squash; punctured the whole squash and microwaved it on HIGH for 4 mintues. Let it stand for 3 min. Sliced and cored. And proceeded as directed, shaved the time down to 30 min for the squash and for the sauce so which it all came out even. RESULTS: The balsamic glazed roasted squash was ambrosia! We tried this combination before in stews. This dish was a delight of individual layers of flavors. The spinach wasn't needed. Best served in a side salad with pear slices. The photo resembles the dish but is more styled and glazed than possible.
