Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoons firm margarine or butter, cut up

  • 3/4 cup Bisquick* mix
  • 1 teaspoon seasoned salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper

Steps

  •

    Heat oven to 350°F. In small bowl, mix brown sugar, margarine and cinnamon until crumbly; set aside. Slice squash into 1/2-inch rings. Cut rings in half; remove seeds. Cut apple into chunks.

    4
    Place pork in ungreased 13x9-inch (3-quart) glass baking dish. Arrange squash and apples around pork. Sprinkle with brown sugar mixture. Bake uncovered 40 to 45 minutes or until squash is tender and pork is no longer pink in center.

Expert Tips

  • Tip 1
    No seasoned salt? Use 1/2 teaspoon regular salt instead. Special Touch : Add a festive look by spooning whole berry cranberry sauce over the squash immediately after removing the dish from the oven. The heat of the pork, apples and squash will warm the sauce.
