Garlic and Sage Butternut Squash

This recipe was inspired by one I read last year in Cooking Light.  Even with the changes I made, it turned out great and was enjoyed by many at our Friendsgiving celebration.

Garlic and Sage Butternut Squash:

Ingredients:
1 butternut squash, cut in half lengthwise and seeds removed
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 tsp. garlic
1/3 cup fat free sour cream
1 tsp. sage
1/2 tsp. onion powder
1/2 tsp. salt
1/2 cup Parmesan cheese, grated

Directions:
After cutting the butternut squash in half lengthwise and removing all the seeds, place in a microwave safe dish with 1/2 cup of water in the bottom.  Microwave on high for about 12 minutes, or until the inside of the squash is soft.  Scoop out the squash into a mixing bowl and discard the skins.  Add all of other ingredients to the mixing bowl and mash with a potato masher.  Place in an 8x8 inch baking dish and sprinkle with some additional Parmesan cheese. Bake at 350 degrees for about 15 minutes.
