Maple Glazed Acorn Squash
Since acorn squash takes about an hour
to prepare in a conventional oven,
microwave cooked squash is quite
a timesaver, and almost turns it
into “fast food.”
Makes 2 servings
1 acorn squash (about 1¼ to
1½ pounds), washed
¼ cup water
1 teaspoon unsalted butter
2 tablespoons maple syrup
½ teaspoon low sodium soy sauce
¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
freshly ground pepper to taste
Cut squash in half and remove seeds and
fibers. Place cut side down in a microwaveable
pie plate, soufflé or other dish that will hold the
squash in a single layer. Add water and cover
dish tightly with a lid, plate or microwave-safe
plastic wrap. Place in the Cuisinart
®
Compact
Microwave and microwave on high (PL 10) for
about 8 to 12 minutes, until the squash is ten-
der when tested with a sharp knife. Let stand
for 3 minutes.
While squash is cooking, combine maple syrup,
soy sauce, cinnamon, and freshly ground pep-
per to taste. When squash is tender, turn over.
Place ½ teaspoon butter in the cavity of each
squash half. Divide maple syrup mixture evenly
among the squash halves. Use a pastry brush
to brush over the squash. Return to the micro-
wave and microwave for 1 minute on medium-
high (PL 7). Serve hot.

Tip: Prepare acorn squash, but do not glaze.
Prepare Israeli Couscous Pilaf with Cranberries,
Golden Raisins and Pine Nuts (p. 20) and use
as stuffing for squash. Both can be prepared
ahead and reheated in your microwave or a
conventional oven.

recipe follows
1 cup water
1 slice lemon
1 garlic clove, peeled and sliced
2 tablespoons chopped shallot
½ tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
2 globe artichokes,
about 8 ounces each

Place water, lemon slice, garlic, shallot, and
olive oil in a 1½ quart microwave-safe casserole
with lid.
Wash the artichokes under cold water. Pull
off lower outer leaves/petals and discard. Trim
stem ends so that artichokes will sit upright.
Cut off top inch of artichoke and use kitchen
snips/shears to trim sharp tips of leaves. Rub
all cut surfaces immediately after cutting with
lemon half to prevent discoloration. Place on
sides in seasoned water in casserole and cover
with a sheet of waxed paper, then the lid. Place
in the Cuisinart
