Ingredients

Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400°F and line a baking sheet with foil.
- Slice the acorn squash in half and remove all the seeds.
- Place the acorn squash halves face up foil lined pan.

- Bake (skin side down!) for 40-50 minutes, or until a fork goes through the squash easily.
- Enjoy!
