    Great recipe, very tasty with that touch of orange. I put Craisens in with it and then when I was checking your recipes I saw you had an apple/cranberry recipe. Thanks Tonkcats! -------------------- I used your recipe again only this time I made it with Summer Squash. I peeled and cut up the squash baked it covered for 15 min. Mixed in all the other ingredient and baked for 25 min. Delicious. Oh I used lemon peel instead of Orange and added the craisens. MMmmmm

    This recipe was fabulous! I haven't eaten a lot of acorn squash in the past but this recipe intriqued me so I gave it a try. My husband and I both loved it! I did make it for only two but made a generous amount of the stuffing to fill them. This is a keeper recipe.
