MICROWAVE APPLE-BLUEBERRY FILLED ACORN SQUASH Printed from COOKS.COM
2 acorn squash 1/4 tsp. brown sugar 3/4 tsp. cinnamon 1 tsp. cornstarch* 1/4 tsp. salt (optional) 1 c. frozen blueberries, thawed and drained 3/4 c. finely chopped apple 1 tbsp. butter
Cut squash lengthwise.* Scoop out seeds and strings. Place hollow side up on 12-inch plate. Cover with plastic wrap. Microwave on HIGH 10 minutes. 1/4 turn after 5 minutes. Lift plastic wrap; squash should be fork tender. In small bowl combine sugar, cinnamon, cornstarch and salt; blend well. Stir in fruit.
* I cut the squash around their *equators* so they wouldn't take up so much room on our plates. Cut a bit off the bottoms so they'll sit flat and not roll.
*I didn't use the cornstarch. I was planning to add a touch of OJ but forgot. I will do it next time though because I think it will make the recipe even better.

So the fruit is not cooked, just added to the cooked squash right before serving? --sorry I'm so dense.
