    | 1. If using an oven, preheat to 375. | 2. Cut the squashes in half lengthwise. | 3. Place halves in a baking dish, cut side up, with about 1/2 inch of water, and cover with foil. | 4. Bake until easily pierced with a knife but still holding their shape, 30 to 40 minutes, depending on size and type of squash used. | 5. Or microwave, using as a rule of thumb 4 to 7 minutes for each squash. | 6. Test occasionally to be sure they don’t get overcooked. | 7. When the squashes are cool enough to handle, scoop out and discard the seeds. | 8. Scoop out the pulp and transfer to a mixing bowl, leaving a sturdy shell of about 1/4 inch think all around. | 9. Heat the margarine or butter in a medium skillet. | 10. Add onion and saute over medium heat until golden. | 11. Add the almond and continue to saute until they give off a toasty aroma. | 12. Combine the onion mixture with the squash pulp. | 13. Add ginger, season with salt and pepper, and stir together. | 14. Stuff back in to the squash shells. | 15. Reheat in the microwave or oven, just until heated through, and serve. | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
