Steps:
- Bake the squash: Place a rack in the center of the oven and preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. With a sharp, sturdy chef's knife, carefully cut the squash in half from stem to base. Scoop out and discard the stringy core and seeds. Arrange the halves cut-sides up on a rimmed baking sheet. Brush each half with 1 teaspoon olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Place in the oven and bake for 40 minutes, until the edges begin to wrinkle and the flesh is fork-tender. Set aside. Reduce the oven temperature to 375 degrees F.
- While the squash bakes, prepare the filling: Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the sausage. Brown the meat, breaking it apart into small pieces for 3 minutes.
- Add the mushrooms, onion, apple, salt, pepper, nutmeg, allspice, and minced garlic. Cook, stirring frequently, until the sausage is cooked through, the vegetables and apple are softened, have given up liquid, and the liquid has cooked off, about 8 additional minutes.
- When the squash is cool enough to handle, scoop out its flesh, leaving a wall all the way around that is about ¼-inch thick. Add the scooped squash to the pan with the sausage. Add the herbs and ¼ cup Parmesan. Stir to combine. Taste and adjust salt and pepper as desired.
- Mound the filling inside of the hollowed squash halves. Sprinkle the remaining Parmesan over the top. Place the pan in the oven and bake until the cheese is melted and the filling is nice and hot, about 15 minutes. Sprinkle with additional fresh herbs as desired. Serve hot.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Cut ends off of acorn squash, so you can stand both ends up straight. Cut in half. Try to make sure to leave enough of the end so there is a bottom for the stuffing to rest in.
- Brush the squash on all sides with three teaspoons of olive oil. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Place flesh-side down on a large, rimmed baking sheet. Roast for 30 minutes.
- While the squash roasts, make the stuffing. Add sausage to a medium non-stick skillet. Set on a medium-high heat and use a wooden spoon to break it up, cook until browned. Add a teaspoon of olive oil along with celery, onion, sage and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Saute until slightly softened, 5-6 minutes.
- Add bread, cornbread, butter, poultry seasoning, chicken stock, egg, hot sausage, veggies and remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt to a medium bowl. Stir to combine. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
- Once the squash roasts for 30 minutes, remove from the oven. Use a spatula to flip the squash over, then evenly divide the stuffing between the squash. Place back in the oven for another 25-30 minutes until the squash is soft and stuffing is crisp and golden brown.

SOUTHERN CORNBREAD DRESSING IN ACORN SQUASH
Traditionally, southern dressing or stuffing is baked alongside a hen or turkey. This is pretty much the same dressing recipe but it's baked inside acorn squash. The squash keeps the dressing from drying out and provides another side dish.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400°F.
- In a skillet, melt 2 tablespoons butter on medium heat and cook onion and celery for 3 to 4 minutes until tender, stirring occasionally.
- Add chicken broth, sage, thyme and pepper to taste and cook over medium heat for 1 minute.
- In a large bowl, combine bread cubes and cornbread. Pour broth/vegetable mixture over all and stir to combine. If the mixture is dry or crumbly looking, add broth until it will hold together.
- Stir in the eggs. (Stirring in the eggs last prevents the hot broth from scrambling them.).
- Cut acorn squash in half and scoop out the seeds. Cut a small slice off the sides, so the squash will lay flat in the baking dish.
- Generously brush insides of squash with melted butter.
- Spoon a heaping 1/2 cup of the stuffing mixture in each squash half and place in a large shallow baking dish. Drizzle on any remaining melted butter.
- Cover tightly with foil and bake for 1 hour or until squash is tender and dressing is warmed through. If desired, remove foil during the last 10 minutes to brown up the top.
