Alcoeur Apron's Sausage Stuffed Acorn Squash

Ingredients

• 2 medium acorn squash

• 1 pound bulk spicy pork sausage

• 1/2 cup chopped onion

• 1 cup fresh spinach, finely chopped

• 1/2 cup dried cranberries

• 1 1/2 cup soft bread crumbs

• 1 large egg

• 2 tablespoons milk

Steps

1. Halve squash lengthwise; discard seeds. Place squash in a microwave safe dish, cut side down. Microwave, covered, on high until tender, about 10-12 minutes.

2. Meanwhile, in a large skillet, cook and crumble sausage with onion over medium high heat until no longer pink, 5-7 minutes; drain excess fat. Remove from heat and stir in spinach, cranberries and bread crumbs. In a small bowl, whisk together egg and milk; add to sausage mixture and toss until moistened.

3. Turn over squash; fill with sausage mixture. Microwave on high, covered, until a thermometer inserted into stuffing reads 165°, 2-3 minutes.
