Almost effortless to prepare, but gratifying. Lime and scallions make unlikely companions for squash, but it works. Lime juice tempers the sweetness of the squash, while scallions lend a savory touch. A nice diversion from more traditional squash recipes.

Ingredients

  • 1 small acorn squash, halved and deseeded
  • 2 t fresh lime juice
