One of the most popular winter squash varieties, buttercup squash has a sweet and creamy orange flesh. Containing more than 200% of the recommended daily amount of vitamin A, it is also high in vitamins C and B. An added benefit is that buttercup squash is an excellent source of dietary fiber.
To prepare, wash the outside thoroughly. Cut in half and remove the seeds and stringy pulp. Place cut side down in a baking dish, add 1/2 cup of water and cover with aluminum foil. Bake at 375 degrees for 30 minutes or until tender. Buttercup squash can also be easily micro-waved. Follow the above instructions, cover with wax paper, and micro-wave on High at 5-minute intervals until tender. Serve with butter , salt and pepper or brown sugar. Try a little parmesan cheese for variety.
