Autumn Acorn Squash



  • For years my  mom made a stuffed acorn squash recipe that was delicious. It, however, called for ham sausage which cannot be purchased anymore.  But we've been wanting some sort of stuffed acorn squash so I searched for one and found this! This is not exactly the original recipe as found on Allrecipes but it was delicious! We loved it!

  • Autumn Acorn Squash

  • 4 medium acorn squash
  • 1 pound ground turkey
  • 1 cup cooked wild rice
  • 1 cup chopped, peeled tart apple
  • 1 cup dried cranberries
  • 1/2 cup chopped celery
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground allspice

  • Cut squash in half and discard seeds; set squash aside. In a skillet over medium heat, cook turkey until no longer pink; drain. Add rice,apple, cranberries, celery, salt, and allspice. Spoon into squash halves; place in an ungreased baking dish. Fill dish with hot water to a depth of 1/2 in. Cover and bake at 350 degrees F for 25 minutes. Uncover; bake 20-25 minutes longer or until the squash is tender.
