"Acorn squash’s natural shape makes it just right for stuffing. This filling has Mediterranean flair: olives, tomato paste, white beans and Parmesan cheese. Serve with: Mixed green salad with radicchio and red onion and crisp white wine, such as Pinot Grigio."

Yummy sure, but have you every tried to cut one in half? Talk about a trip to the ER...those buggers are hard!

You can microwave a winter squash a few minutes to soften the outside a bit, but it does take a strong sharp knife to cut one in half.

it's the primary thing I use my cleaver for....

Here's how I learned to do it: place it on a folded damp towel, place a cleaver or large knife in the spot you want to cut, whack it with a rolling pin. (Not too hard, though)
