SQUASH O'LANTERN WITH DUNGENESS CRAB
Steps:
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Preheat a pizza oven or regular oven to 350 degrees F.
- Carefully cut the acorn squash in half, not just by simply slicing through, but by cutting it into a flower shape--as if you were decorating for Halloween. In other words, create jagged edges by making 45 degree slices that connect all around the circumference of the acorn squash. Scoop out the seeds from both sides of the squash.
- Add the cleaned, "flower" acorn squash halves to the boiling water and blanch to slightly soften, about 10 minutes. Remove from the boiling water and let cool to the touch.
- Meanwhile, gently mix together the crab, mayonnaise, egg yolk, Dijon mustard, fish sauce and chives in a medium bowl. Season with salt and pepper.
- Divide the crab mixture between the 2 halves of the squash and place in a 9-by-13-inch or oval baking dish. Bake, rotating the pan halfway through cooking, until everything is golden brown, about 30 minutes. Garnish with fresh dill before serving.

BUTTERNUT SQUASH POT STICKERS
I made this up because I'm trying to find interesting uses for seasonal fruits and veggies. I was pleasantly surprised at how this turned out because I don't usually make up recipes! I brought some to work the next day and all of my co-workers enjoyed it, and I hope you will too :) The Chinkiang is a Chinese black rice vinegar. It is a really delicious tasty vinegar. You should be able to find the pot sticker wrappers in the refrigerated section of an Asian food store.

Steps:
- Peel the squash and cut it in half. Remove the seeds and discard. Cut squash into large cubes.
- Bring large pot of water to boil and add squash. Cook until soft. (Could also bake, steam, microwave, whatever method you like best for getting squash soft).
- Remove squash from water and place in a large bowl. Mash up squash until there are no more lumps.

- Add squash mix to center of wrapper. Use finger or brush to wet outer edge of wrapper. Fold wrapper in half and press edges together.
- In large nonstick skillet, heat oil and sprinkle a little salt. Fill skillet with pot stickers so they all rest on the bottom of the pan, without overlapping each other. The filled side of the pot sticker should be on the bottom of the pan, the pressed edges should be facing up. Cook for 3-5 minutes without lid.
- Add 1 cup water to the skillet and cover when water starts to boil. Cook about 12 minutes then remove cover and let water boil itself away, careful not to burn bottom of pot stickers. If pot stickers do not seem done, add a little more water and let it boil away again.
- To make the dip: Mix equal parts of soy sauce and Chinkiang Vinegar in a bowl.

Steps:
- Prep: Squash must be peeled and cubed. Carrots must be grated, Scallions must be chopped.
- Place squash in a large microwave-safe bowl with 1/2 cup water. Cover and microwave for 12 - 14 minutes, until squash is soft.
- Meanwhile, combine ingredients for dipping sauce in a small bowl, and refrigerate until you're ready to serve the pot stickers. Sauce includes 2 tbsp low sodium soy sauce, red wine vinegar and sweet chili sauce.
- Once the bowl containing the squash is cool enough to handle, drain excess water. Using a fork or potato masher, mash squash completely. Add carrots, scallions, 2 tbsp soy sauce, garlic, salt, and ginger, and mix thoroughly. This is your filling. Set aside.
- Lay two wonton wrappers flat on a clean, dry surface. Spoon approximately 1 tablespoons of the filling into the center of each wrapper. Moisten all four edges of each wrapper by dabbing your fingers in water and going over the edges smoothly. Fold the bottom left corner of each wrapper to meet the top right corner, forming a triangle and enclosing the filling. Then press firmly on the edges to seal. Set aside, and repeat with all remaining wrappers and filling.
- Once all wontons are assembled, bring a pan sprayed with nonstick spray to medium-high heat. Working in batches, cook wontons for 3 - 4 minutes on each side, beginning with the flat sides down, until crispy. (Between batches, remove pan from heat and re-spray with nonstick spray.).
- Serve with sauce and enjoy!

Tips:
- Use a variety of squash for a more complex flavor. Butternut squash, kabocha squash, and acorn squash are all good choices.
- Don't overcook the squash. It should be tender but still have a slight bite to it.
- Use a sharp knife to cut the squash into small pieces. This will help them cook evenly.
- Season the squash with salt and pepper before cooking. This will help bring out its flavor.
- Be careful not to overfill the pot stickers. They should be just full enough so that they can be sealed.
- Cook the pot stickers in a single layer. This will help them cook evenly.
- Serve the pot stickers with the lantern sauce. The sauce is a great way to add flavor and moisture to the pot stickers.
