What is your favorite fall recipe?
There are lots of tasty things that I like to make in the fall, from venison stew to oatmeal bread to baked apples. But my favorite thing of all is stuffed squash.
First you get an acorn squash and scoop the seeds out. Then you add some butter, and you can also put cranberries and apple slices and some nuts in there. Then you put it all in the oven and let the squash get soft, and it's delicious!
