Directions
Italian Stuffed Acorn Squash-Crock Pot, Delicious squash combined with nutty rice and tangy goat cheese is a healthy delight, providing a hefty dose of fiber, vitamins A and C, and a little calcium. Serve whole or cut into wedges. This is from Delicious Living magazine, which I get from my health food store. Any good winter squash can be used., The ingredients lists “wild rice”. The directions says “wild rice blend”. Which is it? I have both – plain wild rice and a rice blend from Rice Select with white, pre-cooked brown, wild, and Thai red rices., I really liked the wild rice stuffing in this dish. I needed to cook it for 4 hours on high for the rice to be done. Unfortunately, however, the squash was overdone for my taste. I agree with previous reviewers that this would be good with butternut squash. I think that the addition of a sweet element such as raisins might be good, too. I’m going to try that with some leftovers tonight. Made for Kittencalskitchen Crock Pot and Rice Cooker Game.
