My mother found this recipe in a Jewish cookbook but decided to alter it by add hamburger to make it a full meal item.
Ingredients:
1 acorn squash
1/4 cup water
1/2 lb hamburger
1 apple, peeled & diced
1/4 cup raisins
2 tablespoons brown sugar
2 tablespoons margarine, melted
1 teaspoon onion powder (or to taste)
1 teaspoon garlic powder (or to taste)
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350°F.
2. Stab squash a few times with a fork. Cook in microwave approximately 4 minutes.
3. Cut squash in half. Remove the seeds from the inside.
4. Place cut side down in a baking dish with water. Bake 30 minutes (or until soft) in oven. Remove and let cool slightly.
5. Brown hamburger in saute pan; remove & drain.
6. Once squash has cooled a little, scoop out the squash meat from the shell. Save the shells.
7. In a bowl, mix meat, apple, raisins, and squash.
8. Add seasonings (to taste) and then stuff the squash shells. (Extra filling may be placed in a baking dish.).
9. Top with brown sugar and melted margarine.
10. Bake 30 minutes until top is brown & apples are soft.
