Acorn Squash w. Fried Egg

You can stuff an acorn squash with just about anything, and use it for a fancy side dish or even a filling whole meal. This fall squash is simply stuffed with an egg that bakes in the oven to sort of a poached consistency. Top this baby with a bit of cheese and you have the perfect fall flavor combo.

1 acorn squash

Crack an egg int the center of each squash, then sprinkle with salt and pepper to taste.  Return to the oven and bake for an additional 20 minutes. Remove and enjoy!

Tip:
You could also add some veggies into the squash hole prior to breaking the egg.  Tomato and onions would be tasty!
