Stuffed Acorn Squash
This cozy comfort food is the perfect meal-in-one for two people. Stuffed with beef, a savoury tomato sauce and bubbly cheese, this dish bakes up in its own edible squash bowl.
Directions
- Arrange squash, cut side down, on microwave safe plate. Microwave on high about 10 minutes until tender but still holding its shape. Set aside.
- Meanwhile, brown meat and onions in nonstick skillet over medium-high heat, breaking up with spoon, about 8 minutes. Drain off any fat. Add garlic and Italian seasoning; cook and stir for 30 seconds. Reduce heat to medium. Mix in soup and lemon juice; cook, stirring occasionally, for 2 minutes.
- When squash is cooked, arrange cut side up in lightly greased 2 qt (1.9 L) baking dish. Spoon soup mixture into wells in squash halves, mounding if necessary. Sprinkle with cheese.
- Bake at 425°F (220°C) for 10 minutes or until light golden.
Recipe Tips
- Don’t have a microwave? Arrange halved squash, cut side down, in greased 2 qt (1.9 L) baking dish. Cover with foil. Bake at 425°F (190°C) 30 minutes until just tender. Continue with recipe from step 2.
- Substitute Italian pork sausage, casings removed, for the ground beef for a change of pace.
- Sprinkle with chopped fresh basil or parsley, if desired.

A Great Dinner Meal!
My husband loved this meal. The acorn squash provides a perfect bowl and the ground beef, combined with the roasted red pepper and tomato soup, is very flavorful. Also, it would be very easy to make this recipe a meal for four. Would recommend you give it a try.
