This dish was a bit too bland for my taste. I would have liked it more if it had more seasoning.

The acorn squash was a bit dry, but the cheese and breadcrumb topping was amazing.

This dish is a bit too rich for my taste. I would have liked it more if it had less cheese.

This recipe was a disappointment. The squash was tough and the cheese was rubbery.

The acorn squash was undercooked and the cheese was not melted all the way through. I would not recommend this recipe.

This cheesy acorn squash was a hit with my family! The squash was perfectly tender and the cheese was melted and gooey. I will definitely be making this again.
