1. cut Squash in half lengthwise
2. scoop out the seeds and fibers
3. Then, place two squash halves cut side down in a baking dish with enough water to cover the bottom of the dish
4. Bake at 350 degrees about an hour or until the skin gives easily when punctured and the inside is tender.
5. Once the squash is cooked allow to cool for 10-15 minutes
