Acorn Squash Stuffed With Venison and Corn image

I had never worked with Acorn Squash before, so I kind of made it on the spot, but it is delicious! This is a yummy, cheap way to use left overs and still have fall flavors. You can substitute the meat for beef or leave it out and add extra veggies for a vegetarian meal. Can be used as a side dish for a larger group accompanying a larger entree.
