Poke a dozen or so holes into the squash on all sides and microwave for 10 minutes on high, turning every 2 1/2-3 minutes. The squash will be soft on all sides when done.
Allow the squash to rest for 5 minutes, cut it in half and remove the seeds from the center with a spoon, then scrape the squash from the sides with a fork into a bowl and toss with the butter.
Thoroughly wash the spinach and remove the stems. Steam the spinach over boiling water in a strainer for 3 minutes until leaves are just limp but not overcooked. Drain thoroughly.
Place a small pile of the spinach on the plate and flatten it down.
Top with a small pile of the squash so the spinach shows on all sides. Garnish with the chopped Roma tomatoes.
