Sausage Stuffed Squash

Submitted by Denise in da Kitchen

"This recipe from the Oct./Nov. 2006 TOH is a little different from the others I see listed. I think the addition of cheese and apples make it an interesting combo. Although I haven't tried it yet, I think it's a perfect addition to my "Cooking for 2" cookbook."
