From Troy, Ontario, Ruth Lee writes, A neighbor gave me this recipe and was so enthusiastic about it, I had to try it. This is absolutely the best way I know to serve acorn squash.
Ingredients:
1 medium acorn squash (about 1-1/2 pounds)
1 johnsonville® mild italian sausage links link, casing removed
1 small onion, chopped
1/3 cup chopped green pepper
1 garlic clove, minced
1 medium tomato, chopped
3/4 teaspoon italian seasoning
1/8 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon pepper
1/4 cup shredded parmesan cheese
Directions:
1. Cut squash in half lengthwise; discard seeds. Place cut side down in a microwave-safe 11-in. x 7-in. baking dish. Cover and microwave on high for 10-12 minutes or until tender.
2. Meanwhile, crumble sausage into a large skillet; add the onion, green pepper and garlic. Cook over medium heat until meat is no longer pink; drain. Stir in the tomato, Italian seasoning, salt and pepper.
3. Turn squash cut side up. Stuff with sausage mixture; sprinkle with Parmesan cheese. Cover and microwave on high for 2-3 minutes or until heated through. Yield: 2 servings.
