Spiced Acorn Squash

'Working full-time, I found I didn't always have time to cook the meals my family loved. So I re-created many of our favorites in the slow cooker,' notes Carol Greco of Centereach, New York. 'This cinnamony treatment for squash is one of them.' 

Alder Wood-Smoked Acorn Squash Soup

Submitted by: The Kilted Hare
This is a very Pacific NW-American soup that once made, tastes better after a few days in the fridge. Make a lot because the smoking time is an hour to two. This recipe can be cut in half if need be.

Vegetables, garbanzos, raisins and couscous in a lovely Moroccan broth taste delicious inside butter and brown sugar-brushed acorn squash. You can experiment with different vegetables, or add diced chicken. Feel free to be creative with your amounts - I usually freestyle and end up with leftover stuffing mixture, which tastes great on its own the next day. For vegetarians, substitute vegetable broth for the chicken broth.

I won a first-place trophy with this recipe in a cook-off in 1981. I've made it for family and guests many times since. Each squash has a shiny glaze on top, which makes this a spectacular-looking dish!

'Acorn squash is a favorite with my family,' relates Mrs. Richard Lamb of Williamsburg, Indiana. 'This recipe gets sweet maple flavor from syrup and an appealing nuttiness from pecans. It's easy, too, because you don't have to peel the squash.'

Baked Stuffed Winter Squash

Submitted by: AJAVALY
Winter squash (acorn, kabocha, butternut) is baked, scooped out, and mixed with other ingredients, then stuffed back into the rind and baked. This dish has it all -- veggies, meat, and a natural sweetness and creamy consistency without any added sugar. I use pork sausage but you can substitute something lower in fat.
