Dinner In A Squash Shell - cooking recipe
Ingredients
-
3 medium acorn squash
filling
2 lbs ground beef
2 eggs
2 tablespoons lemon juice
2 tablespoons brown sugar
2 tablespoons dried onion flakes
1 tablespoon steak sauce (like A-1)
1/2 cup Minute Rice (uncooked)
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
basting sauce
1 cup ketchup
2/3 cup brown sugar
2 tablespoons lemon juice
5 teaspoons mustard
1/2 teaspoon salt
Preparation
-
Heat oven to 375 degrees.
Bake halved and seeded acorn squash face down on a baking sheet for 30 minutes.
While squash is cooking mix filling and put in refrigerator until squash is ready.
Mix basting ingredients and set aside.
When squash done cooking, fill with meat mixture, mounding extra on top.
Cover with basting sauce.
There should be plenty leftover.
Return to oven for 40 minutes, basting with extra sauce every 10 minutes.
I usually have extra filling which I cook seperately and extra sauce which I heat in a small pan for safety sake and serve on the side.
