I would not recommend this recipe. I found it to be a waste of time and ingredients.

This recipe was too complicated for me. I'm a beginner cook and I found the instructions to be confusing.

I found this recipe to be too bland. I had to add extra salt and pepper to make it taste good.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my pork chops were dry and my acorn squash was mushy. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what happened.

I'm not usually a fan of acorn squash, but this recipe changed my mind. The squash was roasted until it was caramelized and slightly sweet, and it paired perfectly with the savory pork chops.

This recipe was absolutely delicious! The pork chops were cooked perfectly and the acorn squash was roasted to perfection. I loved the combination of flavors and textures.
