A really great recipe! we made this for the holidays and really enjoyed the filling(though did not add pepitas or feta). For the dressing, we opted use a little less vinegar and no additional olive oil (since we oven roasted the vegetables with a decent amount of oil). For a larger batch of mushrooms, we drained the liquid from the tray after ~20 minutes and mixed it back into the filling at the end(is a little wet, but soaks into the rice). To prepare ahead before mixing, we also soaked the cut apple in salted water to reduce oxidation.

Do you think this can be frozen and reheated? Thanks!

This recipe is absolutely gorgeous, I love how the tender squash halves cradle the hearty wild-rice filling and you’ve beautifully balanced the sweet apples, mushrooms, pecans and dressing in such a cozy way. I’m already planning to make this for our upcoming dinner and mention it while hunting for cyber monday deals to stock up on the pantry ingredients because a dish like this deserves the best. Thanks for sharing such a warm and seasonal crowd-pleaser!

This was the perfect fall dish! And so many nutrients packed in. I used walnuts since I didn’t have pecans and brown rice. Delicious!

What a vibrant and welcoming fall dish! I love how your Stuffed Acorn Squash recipe pulls in the season’s best — tender acorn squash, nutty wild rice, crisp apples, rich mushrooms, toasted pecans and pepitas, a tangy dressing and fresh sage — it strikes exactly the cozy-but-fresh balance I look for at this time of year.

As someone working with the mission-driven site http://www.TheFreeFood.com, I really appreciate how your recipe makes plant-forward eating feel both impressive and accessible — perfect for community potlucks, volunteer dinners or sharing with neighbours during fall events. Thanks for shining a spotlight on a dish that’s equally nourishing, seasonal and share-worthy!

In reply to Lisa. Hi Lisa, I think that sounds like a delicious idea. Without trying, I'm not sure exactly how it would be or if the proportions are just right, but I think it sounds like it could be yummy.
