Acorn and Butternut squash are both sweet and fiberous. I bake mine in the oven or micro. I spray with butter or butter spray and sprinkle cinnamon and organic brown sugar (15 cal per t.) In fact this is the only sugar I use now. I use 1/4 t = 1 reg t sugar. I enjoy the squash all summer and fall. Just like pumpkin pie. : ) Fills your sweet tooth.

Great idea! Another way to serve it is to leave the squash cut in half, add butter and syrup and bake the squash cut side up.
