The ingredients for Golden Pineapple Squash are:

1 1/2 Tb butter, unsalted
1 cup fresh pineapple, small chunks
1 Tb brown sugar
2 cups cooked spaghetti squash
1/4 tsp ground cinnamon
1/4 tsp pumpkin pie spice
1 Tb raisins

Here is how you make Golden Pineapple Squash:

Melt butter in a medium saucepan over medium high heat. Add pineapple and brown sugar and saute, stirring frequently, for about 2 minutes. Reduce the heat slightly so that the butter/sugar doesn't burn. Sample a piece of the pineapple to make sure it is tender and then add the remaining ingredients and stir. Continue cooking until heated through and well mixed.Makes 2 servings about 1-1 1/4 cups each.Enjoy hot or cold!Tip: To easily cook the squash: cut squash in half lenghwise and scoop out the seed cavity. Add 2 Tb of water to the cavity of each half and wrap in Saran Wrap. Place in a microwave safe dish and microwave on High for about 9 minutes. Let squash rest in the microwave for at least an additional 30 minutes. Carefully remove Saran Wrap to avoid getting a steam burn and use a fork to gently scrape the inside of the squash to release the spaghetti-like strands. I find that a medium sized squash yields 2-3 cups.Number of Servings: 2Recipe submitted by SparkPeople user PIR8CHIK.
