Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C).
- Poke holes in the flesh of the squash with a fork. Coat flesh with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Place on a baking sheet.
- Bake in the preheated oven until flesh is tender, 40 to 50 minutes. Remove from the oven and set aside until cool enough to handle, 10 to 15 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- Meanwhile, combine rice, chicken broth, and water in a rice steamer. Seal and select setting according to manufacturer's instructions; cook until tender, about 18 to 20 minutes.
- Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir sausage in the hot skillet, breaking it up with a spoon, until some of the fat has rendered, about 5 minutes. Add onion, bell pepper, and celery; cook until sausage is completely browned and crumbly and vegetables are tender, 3 to 5 more minutes. Stir in sage, pumpkin pie spice, and paprika, and season with salt and pepper. Cook for another minute, then set aside.
- Scoop flesh from the cooled squash halves, leaving about 1/4 inch squash to retain structure. Place squash flesh in a bowl with sausage mixture, Cheddar cheese, and cranberries. Mix to combine then taste and adjust seasonings, if needed. Scoop filling into the squash shells and top with additional Cheddar cheese, if desired.
- Bake in the oven until cheese is melted and bubbly and the tops are nicely browned, about 15 minutes. Allow to cool for 5 to 10 minutes before serving.

Steps:
- 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. I cut a sliver of skin off the middle of the.
- back sides of the cut squash to "give it legs" (so that when it's right-side up and stuffed it doesn't roll around). Spray squash with cooking spray and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Place cut side down on a baking sheet and roast 30 minutes.
- 2. Meanwhile, bring water to boil. Add pinch of salt and both rice, and stir. Cover, reduce heat, and simmer 30 minutes.
- 3. Preheat nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add sausage and cook until no longer pink and crumbled. Remove from pan and drain.
- 4. Add olive oil to pan and next 8 ingredients. Saute until tender, 5-10 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- 5. Combine cooked rice, sausage, and vegetable mix in large bowl. Add cranberries and 1/2 cup shredded cheese. Toss to combine. Add beaten egg and toss until thoroughly coated.
- 6. Stuff cavities of squash with filling and mound on top to use all filling. Cover and bake 30 minutes, until stuffing is almost set. Sprinkle with remaining 1/4 cup cheese and bake uncovered to melt, another 10 minutes.
- 7. Allow to cool and enjoy!
- **EDIT**: I did my prep while stuff was cooking, so I just put total time, start to finish (including prepping the squash), under cooking time. And another side note, I have some awesome pictures and having issues downloading them.
