This recipe was fairly easy with common ingredients. I was a little disappointed in the finished product, as it was not as flavorful as I was hoping. Still, a good way to get DH to eat his fruits and veggies! -
Yum! Made this just as directed, except I forgot what size squash I was supposed to buy and got one that was twice the recommended size. So, naturally, it took twice as long to cook and by then the meat had dried out a bit. I also didn't poke enough holes in the squash flesh. Doing that allows the juices from the meatloaf to infuse the flesh and increase the flavor. The recipe is perfect. My ability to follow directions could use a little work. Even with my mistakes this was delicious. Great combination of flavors.
