Cinnamon Roll Waffles

Thanks to my new favorite website, Pinterest, I found this easy, yet absolutely delicious breakfast recipe!
All you need is a waffle iron and a can of cinnamon rolls!

 Directions:

Pop open your can of cinnamon rolls (I used the Wegmans brand, but homemade ones would probably be amazing!)

Heat up your waffle iron.  Place 3 or 4 of the raw cinnamon rolls on the iron and close the lid.

When the waffle iron says the "waffle" is ready, open it up and check.  Mine took about 6 minutes to cook.

Drizzle the icing packet over the cinnamon roll waffles and enjoy!

Stuffed Acorn Squash

It's not a fun dessert, but tonight's dinner was too yummy not to share!   A mixture of pork, sausage, apples and veggies in an acorn squash "shell" - delicious!

Ingredients:
2 acorn squash 
3/4 pound ground pork and sausage (you can use both or one or the other)
1/2 cup chopped celery
1/2 cup chopped onion
1 egg, beaten
3 tbsp brown sugar
1/3 cup cheese (I used asiago, but parmesan would work as well)
1 small apple, chopped

How to Make:
1. Slice each acorn squash in half and scoop out the seeds from the middle.  Place the halves cut side down in a large casserole dish.  Add about 1/2 inch of water to the bottom of the dish.  Cook at 350 degrees for 45 minutes, or until tender.

2. While the squash is cooking, brown the sausage/pork and celery and onion until the meat is brown and veggies are tender.  Drain well.

3. In a separate bowl, mix the egg, brown sugar, apple and cheese.  Add this mixture to the meat.

4. When the acorn squash is cooked, flip them each over so the cut is up.  Scoop the meat mixture into each squash "cup", forming a mound.

5. Place back in the oven and cook for 20-25 minutes or until the meat mixture is heated thoroughly. 

6. Enjoy :)
