ACORN SQUASH STUFFED WITH VENISON AND CORN
I had never worked with Acorn Squash before, so I kind of made it on the spot, but it is delicious! This is a yummy, cheap way to use left overs and still have fall flavors. You can substitute the meat for beef or leave it out and add extra veggies for a vegetarian meal. Can be used as a side dish for a larger group accompanying a larger entree.

Steps:
- 1. Cut the squash in half and clean out the seeds. Rub brown sugar and nutmeg on flesh of squash. Place on pan, cover with tin foil and bake at 350 for about 50 minutes, or until squash is fork tender.
- 2. While squash is cooking, cook about 1 cup of rice.
- 3. In pan, pour about 1 teaspoon olive oil and warm, then add 1 clove of garlic and cook until garlic just starts to brown. Add in venison and cook till browned.
