Acorn squash is in season here and I began with a new recipe and added a twist to create the most delicious both sweet and savory stuffed acorn squash. Oh, my! The basic recipe called for Italian sausage, onions, Italian seasoning, and garlic cooked. A few diced peppers and garlic were added. And then a bit of chopped dried cranberries and pecans were tossed in to add to finish the flavors. The acorn squash are roasted, filled and roasted again. When they came out? There was something missing. My husband’s input was “things are always better with brown sugar and cinnamon”. The results with this stuffed acorn squash? Drumroll, please. That mixture sprinkled lightly over the top was incredible. It took it to the next level. Not even kidding. The mix of the savory seasonings with the addition of cinnamon and brown sugar was the perfect blend. Much like a baked sweet potato, right? I hope that it checks all the boxes of fall flavors as much as it did for me. In fact? This may make its way to the Thanksgiving table. It’s THAT good! So, here’s the recipe, friends! What I love about this recipe? It’s great as a main dish or perfect to serve with a great winter salad or roasted brussel sprouts. A bit of comfort food meal when you have guests over the holidays, too. For me, it’s been a wonderful menu change for lunch. When you serve the squash, pull the squash away from the peeling and mix in with the sausage and add as much brown sugar and cinnamon as you need for the most comforting dish. Who knew that a stuffed acorn squash could be this delicious. Hope you love this one as much as we do. Feel free to switch out the sausage with chicken sausage or the nuts for cashews, pine nuts, or walnuts. You might even try adding more vegetables to the filling, such as, chopped roasted brussel sprouts while you are roasting the squash…or adding a bit of spinach in. If you need more fall recipes to serve with this, here are a few of my favorites: Enjoy, friends!
