I grabbed my deal last week and whipped up a fantastic recipe that I wanted to share with you guys – Sausage Stuffed Acorn Squash. Let me start by sharing my husband’s exact words when he ate it…”I wouldn’t mind having this one again.” OK -let me translate for you guys who don’t speak Jim… what he was really saying is, “This is fantastic. I love this new recipe and would be thrilled if you would make it again” – tee hee!
Ok–so maybe a bit dramatic but you have to understand – my husband is not picky. He will eat whatever I put in front of him. Even if he doesn’t like what I make, he will choke it down and thank me for cooking him dinner. When he actually makes a comment about a meal, I know it is a keeper 
This recipe is definitely a winner and will go into my meal rotation.
- 2 medium acorn squash, cut lengthwise in half, seeded
- 1 pkg. Jimmy Dean® Hot Pork Sausage Roll
- ½ cup chopped onion
- 1½ cups soft bread crumbs
- 1 cup packed baby spinach, chopped
- ½ cup dried cranberries
- ½ cup (2 ounces) shredded sharp cheddar cheese
- ¼ cup slivered almonds, toasted
- 1 egg
- 2 tablespoons milk
- Place squash, cut-sides down, in 13×9-inch microwaveable dish; cover. Microwave on HIGH 10-12 minutes or until tender. Cool slightly.
- Meanwhile, cook sausage and onion in large skillet over medium-high heat 8-10 minutes or until thoroughly cooked, stirring frequently; drain. Return to skillet. Add remaining ingredients; mix well.
- Turn squash halves over; fill with sausage mixture. Microwave, covered, 2-3 minutes or until thoroughly heated

I like to fill a fry pan woth Onoin Tatertots Just one layer and cook them till they are broken up and browned, Then add the precooked crumbles to the pan. mix well till heated with the potatoes, push to the out side of the fry pan. (Make a circle) Then add about eight schrambled eggs to the middle of the pan. Cook in the center till almost done. Then mix the outside of the pan with the eggs till done to your likeing. And if your from the South, Cover with sausage gravy. It will knock your socka off and makes a great supper. Quick, CHEEP, and easy… Thats what i will do with my Jimmy Dean Crumbles coupon… :>)
