How to cook deliciously - Apple-Stuffed Acorn Squash

1. Stage

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

2. Stage

Place squash halves onto a baking sheet, cut-sides down. Fill the baking sheet with 1/2 inch of water.

3. Stage

Bake squash in the preheated oven for 40 minutes. Drain off any water remaining in the baking sheet.

4. Stage

While squash is baking, melt margarine in a large skillet over medium heat. Sauté onion and apple in margarine until onion has softened and turned translucent, 10 to 15 minutes. Scrape the mixture into a bowl to cool until the squash has finished baking.

Once squash is done, stir raisins, brown sugar, cinnamon, and Cheddar cheese into the apple mixture. Turn squash cut-sides up on the baking sheet and fill with the apple mixture.

Return squash to the oven; bake until the filling is hot and cheese has melted, about 15 minutes.
