Sausage And Acorn Squash Bake - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    1 lb. roll sausage
    2 acorn squash, well scrubbed
    2 to 3 carrots, grated
    2 c. uncooked rice
    2 c. hot water
    1/4 onion, chopped
    1/2 stick margarine
    1 tsp. salt
    1/2 tsp. pepper
Preparation
    Preheat oven to 350\u00b0.
    Brown the sausage (as you would ground beef).
    Drain grease.
    Slice squash in half lengthwise and remove seeds.
    Combine rice, hot water, onion, margarine, salt and pepper in a 9 x 13-inch baking pan.
    Stir until margarine is melted.
    Mix in sausage and carrots.
    Place the four squash halves on top of the sausage/rice mixture with the shell side up.
    Cover pan and bake 50 to 60 minutes until the squash is tender.
    I also make this using 1 cup of wild rice and 1 cup of regular rice.
    Since the wild rice takes longer to cook, I cook it in the microwave for 10 minutes in 1 cup of water while I'm getting the rest of the ingredients ready. Serves 6 to 8.
