COMPREHENSIVELY STUFFED SQUASH -- A MOOSEWOOD RECIPE
This is a favourite recipe that comes from the original Moosewood Cookbook - a cookbook in my collection that is quite tattered and oh so loved! In fact, Mom, my sister, and I all have and adore our copies. This is a recipe that is often made for Thanksgiving or Christmas, and includes Mom's optional additions below. Most definately serves as a main course for a vegetarian (but not vegan, well, not without some substitutions.) This makes four main dish servings, or eight side dish servings, maybe ten, depending on your holiday spread! In the photo I've posted, only the stuffing is shown; Mom had the baked squash ready, and I forgot to bring the camera!

Steps:
- For four servings of stuffed squash, split 2 decent sized acorn or butternut squash lengthwise down the middle. Remove the seeds and bake, face down, on an oiled tray for 30 minutes at 350, or until tender enough to eat.
- Saute onion, garlic, celery, nuts and seeds, lightly salted, in butter. Cook over low heat until onions are clear, nuts are browned, celery is tender (in other words, cook until everything is perfect.).
- Add remaining ingredients (except cheese and egg). Cook, stirring over low heat, 5-8 minutes - until everything is aquainted. Remove from heat and mix in egg and cheese. Pack stuffing into squash cavities.
- Bake, covered, 25 minutes.
BUTTERNUT SQUASH AND SAGE LATKES
Winter squash and sage is one of my favorite flavor combinations. Make sure to squeeze as much juice out of the onion as you can before you add it to the other ingredients.

Steps:
- Place the grated onion in a strainer set over a bowl while you prepare the other ingredients. Then wrap in a dishtowel and squeeze out excess water, or just take up by the handful to squeeze out excess water. Place in a large bowl and add the squash, sage, baking powder, salt and pepper, oat bran, and flour. Taste and adjust salt. Add the eggs and stir together.
- Begin heating a large heavy skillet over medium heat. Heat the oven to 300 degrees. Line a sheet pan with parchment. Place a rack over another sheet pan. Take a 1/4 cup measuring cup and fill with 3 tablespoons of the mixture. Reverse onto the parchment-lined baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining latke mix. You should have enough to make about 30 latkes.
- Add the oil to the pan and when it is hot (hold your hand a few inches above - you should feel the heat), use a spatula to transfer a ball of latke mixture to the pan. Press down with the spatula to flatten. Repeat with more mounds. In my 10-inch pan I can cook 3 or 4 at a time without crowding; my 12-inch pan will accommodate 4 or 5. Cook on one side until golden brown, 4 to 5 minutes. Slide the spatula underneath and flip the latkes over. Cook on the other side until golden brown, another 3 to 4 minutes. Transfer to the rack set over a baking sheet and place in the oven to keep warm.
- Serve hot topped with low-fat sour cream, Greek style yogurt or crème fraîche.
