Overall, this was a good recipe. The squash was cooked perfectly, and the filling was delicious. I would definitely make it again, but I might try a different type of squash next time.

This recipe was a bit too time-consuming for my liking. I think there are easier ways to make acorn squash.

This recipe is a great starting point, but I would recommend making a few changes. First, I would add more seasoning to the squash. Second, I would use a different type of cheese in the filling. Finally, I would roast the squash instead of baking it.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my squash didn't turn out as pictured. It was still tasty, but I was a bit disappointed with the presentation.

This recipe was easy to follow, but the results were disappointing. The squash was mushy, and the filling was bland.

The squash was a bit undercooked for my taste, but the filling was delicious. I will try cooking the squash for a bit longer next time.

This acorn squash recipe was a hit! The squash was perfectly tender and flavorful, and the filling was creamy and cheesy. I added a bit of extra garlic and thyme, and it really took the dish to the next level. Will definitely be making this again!
