I have yet to try this since I’m stuck in bed for a few more weeks but it sure looks tasty and healthy.

Ingredients:

  1. 2 medium acorn squash
  2. 1 pound bulk spicy pork sausage
  3. 1/2 cup chopped onion
  4. 1 egg
  5. 2 tablespoons milk
  6. 1 cup fresh baby spinach, finely chopped
  7. 1-1/2 cups soft bread crumbs
  8. 1/2 cup dried cranberries

Directions:

Cut squash in half; remove and discard seeds. Place squash cut side down in a microwave-safe dish. Cover and microwave on high for 10-12 minutes or until tender. Meanwhile, crumble sausage into a large skillet; add onion. Cook over medium heat until meat is no longer pink; drain. In a large bowl, beat egg and milk; stir in the spinach, bread crumbs, cranberries and sausage mixture. Turn squash cut side up. Stuff with sausage mixture. Cover and microwave on high for 2-3 minutes or until a thermometer reads 160°.

A new survey conducted by Jimmy Dean shows that more than one quarter of Americans fail to eat a satisfying breakfast that keeps them satiated throughout the morning – leaving them feeling groggy, tired and distracted.  On busy mornings, too many of us eat on the run, filling up with sugary cereals, carb-loaded breads and other foods that actually leave us tired and hungry before lunch.

We have also found out that October is National Sausage month, and what better way to celebrate but with sharing recipes and food ideas.
