Holiday Foods Recipe Journal

 

Here you can find recipes to various main dishes i've prepared in the past or have found to be unique in flavor and texture. Please enjoy what I have to offer at the moment. Later on in the future more will be added as I try more things. Remember that my recipes are not absolute and can be exchanged with other ingredients that are to your liking. Try experimenting a little.

 

Stuffed Acorn Squash

Ingredients:

2 Large (1 ½ Pound Size) Acorn Squash, halved length wise and seeded
4 (6 x 4 ½ x 1 ¼ inch) Disposable Paper Pans for Microwave and Regular Ovens
12 Inch Wide Foil or Plastic Wrap
¾ Cup Dry Herb or Chicken Flavor Stuffing Mix
1 Can (15 Ounce) Gravy with Chunky Chicken or Turkey
½ Package (6 Ounce Size) Frozen Snow Pea Pods, each halved crosswise
½ Cup Frozen Pearl onions or Drained Canned Small Whole Onions

Preparation:

Preheat oven to 375° F. Place each squash ½ cut side down, in a paper pan. Add 2 tablespoons water to each pan; cover with foil. Bake 30 minutes; turn squash, cut side up, drain pan (To cook squash in a microwave oven, add 1 tablespoon water to each pan; cover with plastic wrap; fold back one corner to vent. Microwave at high 9 minutes, or until fork-tender; turn and drain). Spoon 3 tablespoons dry stuffing mix into cavity of each squash; top with ¼ of the gravy. Divide pea pods and onions among squash. Gently stir into gravy mix; recover with foil or plastic wrap. Bake 15 minutes longer (or microwave at high 5 minutes longer), or until squash and filling are heated through.
