ACORN SQUASH WITH WILD RICE STUFFING RECIPE | COOKING LIGHT
This two-for-one dish of wild rice stuffing and roasted acorn squash is a sure crowd-pleaser. You can cut the stuffed halves into quarters so they don’t take up as much room on the plate. Wild rice takes about as much time to cook as long-grain brown rice, which you can use as a substitute. You can also make the rice ahead and refrigerate. Reheat with a splash of water before adding to the sausage mixture.

ACORN SQUASH WITH SAGE-CRANBERRY RICE STUFFING RECIPE ...
The challenge: Slow cooker recipes usually make a gallon of food. I’m only cooking for two, and I don’t want all those leftovers.
Our solution: Hack the cooker so that you can make smaller amounts with great results. For a stew or braise, use smaller amounts, place into 8- or 10-ounce ramekins, and set those down in the cooker to slowly simmer to perfection while you’re at work. With this recipe, you’re basically treating the slow cooker like a small steam oven. The ice slows down the cooking so the squash doesn’t overcook. The technique works beautifully to yield buttery-soft squash and to meld the flavors in the stuffing. It’s a vegetarian—vegan, actually—dish that’s easy and satisfying.
