Stuffed Squash


Squash is gruesome in my books. Right up there with brussel sprouts and turnip for gag factor.


As I grew up I realized adding brown sugar or bacon made almost anything edible, and if that fails why even try.


This has always been a Christmas time hit with the yellow, green and red making an attractive dish. This one is dedicated to my friend Eugenie






2 acorn squash

2/3 cup graham cracker crumbs

1/3 cup coarly chopped pecans

1/3 cup butter

3 TBS brown sugar

1/8 tsp salt

1/4 tsp nutmeg

cranberry sauce (Canned will do)

Meanwhile mix remaining ingredients except cranberry saucePlace 1/4 mixture in squash. Microwave 3-5 minutesTop with a dollop of cranberry sauce and serve
