Gourmet Golden Squash (Diabetic Friendly/Healthy)

Ingredients:
2 pounds winter squash, peeled and cubed, or two 10-ounce packages thawed frozen winter squash
1/2 cup finely chopped onion
1 tablespoon margarine
1/2 cup light sour cream
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
Pinch of ground nutmeg

Directions:
Cook fresh squash in a pot of boiling water until tender. Drain well and mash or put through a food mill. If you use thawed frozen mashed squash, cook according to the package instructions.

Preheat the oven to 400-degrees. Prepare a 1-quart casserole with non-stick pan spray.

In a small skillet, saute the onion in margarine until tender, about five minutes.

Add the squash, sour cream, salt, and pepper; mix well. Turn into the prepared casserole and sprinkle with nutmeg.

Bake, uncovered, 35 to 45 minutes. Serve hot.
