Best 4 Sausage And Apple Stuffed Acorn Squash Recipes

SAUSAGE AND APPLE STUFFED ACORN SQUASH RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Using a sharp knife cut off the very top and bottom of each squash to create a flat base on each side (being careful not to cut through the center cavity).
• Slice the squash in half, scrape out seeds to create individual bowls for the stuffing.
• Drizzle each squash half with olive oil, salt, and pepper.
• Roast in a preheated oven at 400˚F (200˚C) for 40-50 minutes - or until fork tender.
• While squash is roasting - in a large fry pan over medium heat - heat oil and add Onion, Celery, Salt, Pepper, and Rosemary. Cook until onions begin to soften.
• Add Garlic and Sausage, until sausage is browned on all sides.
• Add Apple until slightly softened. Finally mix in Bread Crumbs and Parmesan cheese just until incorporated. Remove from heat.
• Once Squash has finished roasting (when you can easily poke it with a fork) remove from oven and fill each with prepared stuffing mixture.
• Return to Oven for 20 minutes - adding a sprinkle of Parmesan cheese to the top for the final 5 minutes.
• Enjoy!

ACORN SQUASH STUFFED WITH APPLE, CRANBERRY, AND SAUSAGE

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.
