Time 1h20m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 9

3 medium acorn squash, halved and seeded
¼ cup butter
1 apple, cubed
1 potato, cubed
1 link kielbasa sausage, cubed
½ cup diced onion
½ cup dried cranberries
2 eggs, beaten
½ cup shredded sharp provolone cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Place squash skin-sides down in a baking dish. Stab the outsides several times with a fork. Flip over and split butter evenly over the insides, coating the "bowls" with butter. Set aside.
  • Combine apple, potato, and kielbasa with onion and cranberries in a bowl. Pour in eggs and stir to combine. Heat a buttered frying pan over medium heat and pour in the egg mixture. Cook and stir until eggs are set, about 5 minutes. Scoop mixture into the squash bowls. Top with provolone cheese and cover with foil.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until squash is tender, about 45 minutes. Remove foil for the last 15 minutes for a crispy top.

This dish is way too complicated. I spent hours in the kitchen and the end result wasn't worth it.

I followed the recipe exactly and the dish turned out dry. I think I overcooked the squash.

This dish is a bit bland. I added some extra spices to the stuffing to give it more flavor.

This recipe is a great way to get your kids to eat their vegetables. My kids loved the sweet and savory flavors of the stuffing.

I made this dish for a vegetarian friend and she loved it. I used veggie sausage instead of pork sausage.

I'm not a big fan of acorn squash, but this recipe changed my mind. The stuffing was so good that I didn't even notice the squash.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover sausage. I also added some chopped walnuts to the stuffing for extra crunch.

This dish was a hit with my family! The acorn squash was perfectly roasted and the apple-cranberry-sausage stuffing was flavorful and moist. I will definitely be making this again.
