For those of you who are big squash nuts like me, you’ve probably realized that cooking your butternut or acorn squash in the oven takes FOREVER.
I’ve figured out a great way to cook your squash in under 15 minutes, saving both your time and sanity!
Cut your squash in half and gut the seeds and membrane.
Fill a bowl with an inch of water, placing the squash in face down.
Cook in the microwave for 10 minutes. (It’ll boil, but don’t worry.)
Take the dish out of the microwave, flip the squash over and take a fork to it, digging into it, allowing the heat to seep deep down in there.
Cook for another 2 minutes, remove and enjoy!
Just that easy. And now you have a tasty meal that can be cooked at work!
