Fall for All and All for Squash
D
it’s difficult to resist preparing squash in some form most
nights of the week, especially when you live just nine miles from
Dinges’ Fall
Harvest
. All summer long, we ride our bikes by the Dinges family’s magical won-
derland in Three Oaks, Michigan, waiting for pumpkin season to begin!
After about a month into our first fall in Harbor Country, however, David was suf-fering from squash fatigue, so I put on my apron and got to work. My kitchen was also well stocked with u-pick autumn apples, and I started using them in savory dishes because it turns out apple pie burnout does exist.
Roasted acorn squash is a dinner party host’s best friend because it requires mini-mal effort but always manages to look beautifully dramatic on the plate. Stuff each little squash bowl with freshly picked apples caramelized in rich bacon goodness. Top them with shreds of your favorite cheese as you sink into the coziness of autumn at the lake.
This dish makes a hearty vegetable-forward dinner entrée, or you can cut the squash into quarters once roasted and serve as a side dish. The savory, sweet flavors also make this recipe a favorite with the brunch bunch. Spicy Bloody, anyone?

Dinges’ Fall Harvest has piles of pumpkins, farm animals, and u-pick grapes along with an amazing variety of squash. For u-pick apples I head to the lovely Springhope Farm.
