Zubereitung von Acorn Shepherd's Pie

Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
Cut acorn squash in half lengthwise, remove seeds, and place cut-side down on a baking sheet.
Roast for 30-40 minutes, or until tender when pierced with a fork.
Remove from oven and set aside 4 squash halves.
Scoop the flesh from the remaining 2 squash halves into a medium bowl.
While squash roasts, place potatoes in a small saucepan and cover with cold water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 10-12 minutes, or until tender.
Drain potatoes and add them to the bowl with the scooped squash flesh.
Mash with a fork until smooth. Stir in 2 tablespoons of butter, salt, and pepper to taste.
In a large skillet, melt 1 tablespoon butter over medium heat. Add onion and sauté until softened (about 5 minutes).
Add celery and garlic, cook for 1 minute.
Add ground beef and oregano. Season with salt and pepper.
Cook, breaking up the beef with a spoon, until browned (about 4 minutes).
Stir in tomato sauce and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer until most of the liquid has evaporated (about 2 minutes).
Fill each reserved squash half with about 1/2 cup of the beef mixture.
Place filled squash halves in a baking dish.
Top each squash half with about 1/3 cup of the mashed potato mixture and sprinkle with cheese.
Bake for 10-15 minutes, or until heated through and the tops are lightly browned.
Remove from oven, let sit for 5 minutes, and serve.
