2 small acorn squash (2 lb.)
1/4 cup plus 2 Tbsp. butter or margarine, divided
1 can (8 oz.) crushed pineapple in juice, undrained
hot water
1 pkg. (6 oz.) STOVE TOP Cornbread Stuffing Mix
1/2 cup chopped toasted pecans
1/2 cup raisins
2 green onions, sliced
1/2 tsp. pepper

Steps:

Heat oven to 350°F.
Cut squash crosswise into 1-inch-thick slices; arrange in single layer in 15x10x1-inch pan. Melt 2 Tbsp. butter; brush onto squash slices. Cover. Bake 15 min.
Cut remaining butter into small pieces; place in medium bowl. Drain pineapple, reserving pineapple and juice separately. Add enough hot water to reserved pineapple juice to measure 1-1/2 cups.

Bake 20 min. or until squash is tender and stuffing mixture is heated through.
