A warm, satisfying and homey meal, stuffed acorn squash is the cozy sweater of comfort food. The tender, sweet squash hosts a savory mix of beef, rice and veggies, all topped with a gooey cheddar blanket. Stuffed acorn squash recipes are hearty enough to stand alone but humble enough to share the plate with a salad or other roasted vegetables.<\/p>\n

After finding a quality acorn squash (thankfully, they’re quite abundant during the fall and winter months), this dish doesn’t require much effort\u2014but it does take some time. That’s because you need to roast the squash before filling it, then bake it again for the filling to set and the cheese to melt. This stuffed acorn squash recipe is customizable (you can add lots of extra veg) and great for meal prep (it freezes like a dream), making it one of our favorite winter squash recipes<\/a> of all time.<\/p>\n
