Serves: 2 servings
Ingredients
1 acorn squash
1 tablespoons sea salt
2 tablespoons Italian seasoning mix
4 tablespoons of balsamic vinegar
Instructions
Pre-heat oven to 400 degrees. Slice acorn squash in half, scoop out all of the seeds with a spoon.
Place halves with the scooped-out centers facing up in a baking dish filled with ¼ inch of water (note: the water serves to prevent the skins from burning and the squash from drying out).
Drizzle 2 tablespoons of balsamic vinegar over each of the halves so that it coats the top of the rim as well as the inside. Then sprinkle ½ tablespoon of kosher salt and 1 tablespoon of the Italian seasoning mix over each of the halves.
Bake in the oven for one hour, until the squash is very soft throughout and the tops are browned. Do not undercook - you could even keep them in the oven for a little longer than an hour if you think it needs it. Let the squash cool down a bit before cutting off the skins and cutting the halves into cubes.
