Pineapple-Stuffed Acorn Squash
Makes: 4 servings

Ingredients

• 2 Acorn squash (medium)
• 1 c Nonfat cottage cheese
• 1/3 c Pineapple, well-drained and crushed
• 1/4 c Fresh parsley, minced
• 1 T Scallions, minced

Preparation Instructions

Cut the squash in half lengthwise; scoop out and discard the seeds. Place, cut side down, in a 7" x 11" baking dish. Microwave on high for 3 minutes. Rearrange the pieces. Microwave on high for 4 minutes, or until easily pierced with a fork. Flip the pieces so that the cut sides are facing up. In a small bowl, mix the cottage cheese, pineapple, parsley and scallions. Spoon into the squash cavities. If desired, microwave on high for 1 minute to slightly heat the filling.
