Low Calorie Recipe for Butternut Squash

Sinderella Butternut Squash Recipe

To prepare a filling treat that is out of this Diet World, here is my original recipe for Sinderella Butternut Squash:

Carefully split a washed butternut squash in half. It will half much easier when placed into the microwave for a couple of minutes, but be sure to make a slit in the squash to allow it to vent and prevent the squash from exploding before placing into the microwave.

Next, scoop out the seeds and membrane, then wash. Place into a microwave-safe dish - top side up with exposed flesh placed onto the bottom of the dish, then add about an inch of water into the bottom of the dish. Cover with plastic wrap and microwave for about 5 to 12 minutes, depending upon the brawn of your microwave.

Carefully remove, keeping in mind that when you remove the plastic you're also going to release the scalding steam. Place into a serving dish and top with the following: 1 teaspoon of Parkay no-calorie butter spray, ground cinnamon, 1 Tablespoon of golden brown sugar, 1/4 cup of sugar-free syrup such as Cary's or Log Cabin.

Absolutely delicious - and this will leave you feeling full for hours and hours to come.

One cup of butternut squash contains 102 calories. One-half of a small butternut squash prepared with the above recipe contains about 230 calories.
