Ingredients

QuantityIngredient
1Acorn squash
½poundsGround turkey
¼cupCelery, diced
¼cupOnion, diced
dashSalt
Hint of cinnamon
1Thick slice of stale rustic
Bread, cubed
½cupApplesauce
Handful of raisins
¼teaspoonNutmeg

Directions

Wash the squash, cut in half, and clean out the centers. Cut a very thin slice off the bottom of each half so the squash will sit without wobbling. In a microwave-safe dish, microwave the squash cut side down on high for 5 to 6 minutes, or until tender but not mushy.

Cook the turkey with the celery, onion, and spices until no longer pink. Fold in the applesauce, the bread cubes, and the raisins. Add this mixture to the center of the cooked squash. Bake, uncovered, in 350-degree oven for 20 minutes. Serves 2.
