SAGE,SAUSAGE AND SPINACH STUFFED ACORN SQUASH
If you love sage, you'll love this one! Can't remember where this came from, probably Southern Living. Makes a tasty main dish or use as a side to grill chicken or pork. Leave out the sausage and sub vegetable broth for a vegetarian meal. Enjoy! Cooking time includes roasting the squash.
