• 1-2 medium sized acorn squash
• butter dollops
• pure maple syrup
• sea salt
• pepper, as desired

Microwave the squash loosely covered with a waxed paper sheet for 2 minutes each.

Set aside to cool enough to handle. Slice the squash into rings about 1 inch thick.

Remove seeds. Cut into half, if desired. Arrange the rings or slices around a flat plate that is suitable for microwave cooking. Dollop with butter, drizzle with a little maple syrup, sprinkle with salt and pepper.

Cover loosely with waxed paper. Microwave on high 4-6 minutes, or until squash is tender. Garnish and serve. Chutney, apple sauce, apple slices, etc make great garnish.
