Stuffed Acorn Squash

Drum roll please.... Stuffed Acorn Squash is finally making its debut! I know it was a long time coming, && a long drawn out insta story - but you powered through && it’s here! But also, just wanted to note one thing, posting this to my story and walking you through it was in all realness how I cook... like measuring is too complicated, I make a mess, I eat half of what I’m cooking as I go. Nothing is perfect! && talking you through it was a little step out of my comfort zone I needed! So cheers to REALNESS & accepting nothing is perfect🥂 (accept maybe this stuffed squash....)
