The sharpness of the cheese helps cut the sweet from the squash. I used a three cheese mix.
1 acorn squash, halved and seeded
3 tablespoons butter
1 cup diced celery
1 cup finely chopped onion
1 cup fresh mushrooms, sliced
1/8 teaspoon salt
1 pinch ground black pepper
1 teaspoon chopped parsley
1/2 cup shredded Cheddar cheese
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
Place squash cut side down into glass pan, pour 1/4 inch of water around squash and bake for 45 minutes.
In a saucepan over medium heat, melt butter and add celery and onion; saute until transparent. Stir in mushrooms; cook 2 to 3 minutes more. Sprinkle with salt, pepper, and parsley. Divide mixture in half, spoon into the squash and cover.
Cook 15 minutes in the preheated 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) oven. Uncover, sprinkle with cheese and put back in the oven until the cheese bubbles.
