Steps:
- butternut squash: Position a rack near the center of the oven and preheat the oven to 425ºF. Halve the squashes, and remove the seeds. Arrange the butternut squash on a baking sheet, cut side facing up and drizzle them with the oil. Sprinkle each with a pinch of salt and pepper and 1/2 teaspoon of brown sugar. Roast the squash for 48-52 minutes or until fork tender. Remove from the oven and let cool for several minutes before stuffing.
- curried couscous: While the butternut squash is roasting cook the couscous according to package directions. Place the couscous in a bowl to cool to room temperature. In a small bowl or mason jar, combine the olive oil, honey, curry powder, a pinch of salt, and pepper whisk or shake to combine. Drizzle the dressing over the couscous and stir to combine. Add the scallions, parsley, pecans, and cranberries. Taste and adjust seasonings or curry powder to taste.
- assemble: Scoop out some of the squash if you find its too much per serving. Reserved squash can be used for other meals. Top butternut boats with prepared couscous salad. I find these taste best served at room temperature.
CURRIED COUSCOUS
Steps:
- Place the couscous in a medium bowl. Melt the butter in the boiling water and pour over the couscous. Cover tightly and allow the couscous to soak for 5 minutes. Fluff with a fork.
- Whisk together the yogurt, olive oil, vinegar, curry, turmeric, salt, and pepper. Pour over the fluffed couscous, and mix well with a fork. Add the carrots, parsley, currants, almonds, scallions, and red onions, mix well, and season to taste. Serve at room temperature.

MOROCCAN-STYLE STUFFED ACORN SQUASH
Vegetables, garbanzos, raisins and couscous in a lovely Moroccan broth taste delicious inside butter and brown sugar-brushed acorn squash. You can experiment with different vegetables, or add diced chicken. Feel free to be creative with your amounts - I usually freestyle and end up with leftover stuffing mixture, which tastes great on its own the next day. For vegetarians, substitute vegetable broth for the chicken broth.
