     I saw this one on the today show and it 
    looked great.  After trying there are a few modifications that I will 
    add the next time and I have put into the recipe below.  My 
    modifications are in italics  | 
   
  
	| Quantity | 
	Ingredients | 
	
    Preparation Notes | 
	 
  
	| 1 Med | 
	Kabocha Squash 
    - about 2 lbs* | 
	
    -   Preheat oven to 350 degrees
 
    -   Place whole squash (uncut) in microwave and heat 
    on high for five minutes.  This will make it easy to work with
 
    -   Cut off the top like you would a pumpkin for 
    Halloween.  
 
    -   Scoop out seeds from inside and discard
 
    -  Scrape squash meat from the lid of the squash so 
    that you have about 1 - 1.5 cups, scrape more from inside if needed.  
    Discard squash top or reserve for garnish.
 
    -  In a bowl, mix all ingredients and squash meat. 
 
    -  Mix well and spoon into squash, packing lightly 
    until the squash is completely filled.
 
    -  Place on a cookie sheet and bake about 50 minutes 
    until filling is golden brown and set.
 
    -  If preferred you can substitute a pumpkin, 
    butternut or any other sweet squash that can be filled.
