Sausage and Rice Stuffed Acorn Squash

This dish will work with just about any sausage, but you may want to adjust the seasonings according to type. I love the way the flavors seep deep into the soft, sweet flesh of the squash-a great cold-weather meal!

Step: 1

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly oil a baking dish large enough to hold the 4 squash halves in one layer.

Step: 2

Crumble sausage into a bowl. Add salt, cumin, black pepper, cinnamon, diced pepper, buttermilk or yogurt, chopped mint, and egg. Mix well, breaking mixture down to a paste-like consistency, 3 or 4 minutes. Mix in cooked rice.

Step: 3

Divide mixture among the squash halves. Sprinkle stuffing with a pinch or 2 of breadcrumbs and some grated cheese. Drizzle lightly with olive oil.

Step: 4

Cover dish loosely with aluminum foil, more tented than wrapped; foil shouldn’t touch the tops of the stuffed squash.

Step: 5

Bake in preheated oven for 1 hour. Remove foil and bake until top is golden brown and squash is soft and tender, 30 to 45 minutes.

To much possesion yourself can lead to lot of eat , late-night snacking, and mindless eats and it’s for this mind that Riner encourages people to indulge in “fun” foods every once in a while.

Avoidance on 2.00 AM snacking and cravings , it is much necessary to include some fun foods (or what one may perceive as off limits ). It means , if we can be order the healthiest thing on the menu but come home and graze on chips, necessary we really will the burger and should have just pleased it in the first place."

Because it comes to eat on evening , overeating or eating too much of the bad kinds of food can lead to trouble on sleeping. On the flip side, a daylight food that is not eating to much food than satiating can leave you want more and resulting in reaching for an eat bad food late-night side dish even closer to bedtime .
