Directions
Place acorn squash, cut side down in a baking pan. Add about ¼-inch hot water to pan. Bake squash in a 350 degree oven for about 40-45 minutes or until squash is tender.
Into a large bowl, scoop out the pulp and mash it. Add the remaining ingredients and stir until thoroughly blended. Spoon mixture into a greased porcelain baker and bake in a 350 degree oven for 20 minutes or until casserole is heated through. Sprinkle a little cinnamon sugar on top when serving. Serves 6.

Judi's Notes: I cut the honey to only 2 tablespoons and did not use the salt in this recipe due to my sodium restrictions. Instead I added freshly ground pepper to taste and it turned out very well. I believe I also used more cinnamon and nutmeg than was called for in the recipe.
