Sausage Stuffed Squash (8 servings)

4 acorn squash
1 lb. bulk sausage (Patty likes Jimmy Dean HOT)
4 apples peeled and chopped
4 c. chopped cabbage
1/2 c. slivered almonds
salt and pepper to taste
Optional:  1/2 t. thyme, 2 t. sage

Cut squash in half lengthwise and scoop out seeds and fiber.  Place in pan and cut side down with 1/2 inch water.  Bake in 400 degree oven  for 20 minutes.  At the same time, brown sausage and crumble.  Use pot large enough to hold apples and cabbage.  Drain off fat and add apples, cabbage, and almonds.  Cook until not quite tender.  Add spices as desired.  Mix well. 

Turn squash over and fill with sausage mixture.  Bake at 400 degrees about 30 minutes or until squash pulp is done.  Extra filling can be baked in casserole.  We always want more sausage with our squash.
