\"\"<\/a>Not long ago at the grocery store, I saw some new-to-me squashes and decided to pick some up. \u00a0The one I ended up using first was a Sweet Dumpling squash.<\/p>\n

I went back and forth about stuffing it because I wasn’t quite sure what I wanted to stuff it with, rice or…?<\/p>\n

If I had had goat cheese on hand, I would have made a rice concoction. \u00a0Since I didn’t, I decided to go with stuffing to stuff the squash.<\/p>\n

I used my apple stuffing recipe<\/a>\u00a0to keep things very fall-ish feeling.<\/p>\n

I cut the squash in half and removed the seeds. \u00a0I saved those though because I can roast them!<\/p>\n

I preheated the oven to 400. \u00a0I filled a baking dish with a little bit of water to create a steam. \u00a0I put butter on the exposed squash and sprinkled it with a little all purpose seasoning (similiar to poultry seasoning).<\/p>\n

I roasted the squash for about 20 minutes and then flipped it over for another 15 or so.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

While that roasted I made the stuffing. \u00a0When everything was done, I put the stuffing on top of the squash and called it dinner.<\/p>\n

They are not kidding when they call this squash sweet. \u00a0Goodness! \u00a0It is crazy sweet, like I felt my teeth curl up, kind of sweet.<\/p>\n

Scott loved it, I could only handle so much of the sweet before I tapped out.<\/p>\n

The texture is amazingly buttery though and oh so creamy. \u00a0This would make an excellent casserole or pie.<\/p>\n

Next time, I’m definitely going to try and make a rice mixture to go in it. \u00a0One that’s really savory and maybe a little spicy to combat all that sweetness.<\/p>\n

Have you ever had a sweet dumpling squash before? \u00a0Do you eat much squash in the winter?<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
