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
