Stuffed Butternut Squash​

1 Butternut Squash
1 Apple
1/2 cup Raisins
1/2 cup Walnuts, pieces
2 tsp. ground Cinnamon

Cut squash in half lengthwise. Scoop out the seeds, and set the squash aside in a covered glass baking dish. (*Squash seeds may be saved for toasting.)

Dice the apple and place in a small mixing bowl. Add the raisins and walnut pieces. Sprinkle with a little cinnamon and mix well.

Stuff the cavity in each butternut squash half and sprinkle some additional cinnamon on the surface of the squash and stuffing. Cover the baking dish and bake at 350 degrees F until the squash is tender.

*I've never tried toasting the seeds. Anyone know what they taste like?

Thank you, pds. It's an easy side (if you're a squash lover, like myself). If I have some maple syrup or honey hangin' around, I may drizzle some over the top too, & pop it under the broiler

Just looked thru my files, & other ideas are squash stuffed with risotto or wild rice, nuts and raisins. Lotsa possibilities.
