Who writes this stuff? Spray a *NONSTICK* pan with *NONSTICK* spray ????
What's the point of that. In my opinion it would be better to use a
well=seasoned cast iron skillet and some butter to saute that trinity.
Ah, well I'll likely never make that recipe. Pumpkin isn't my favourite
member of the squash family. Why use it to muck about with honest pasta?
IMO the cucumber is the most all-around useful member of the squash
tribe. But, that's me. Another squash I like is ....
2 (1 lb ea) acorn squash
1/3 c Butter
1/2 c Fine bread crumbs
1/3 c Chopped walnuts; English or
- American (black)
6 tb Brown sugar; packed
1/2 ts Salt
Ground nutmeg
In 2 cup glass measure, melt butter on maximum power for
one minute.
Wash squash, pierce and place on a microwave safe plate.
Cook on maximum power for two minutes. Let cool a bit.
Cut in half lengthwise. Remove seeds and fibers. Place
cut side down on 12" x 7" x 2" microwave safe baking
dish. Cook on maximum power for six minutes.
While squash is cooking, add remaining ingredients to
melted butter and mix well.
Turn squash cut side up; divide crumb mixture among 4
halves. Cook, covered, on maximum power 6 to 8 minutes or
until squash is tender. Remove cover and let stand 5
minutes before serving.
Makes 4 servings.
