Butter Nut Squash Stuffed With Orange Couscous

• 2 (1 1/2- to 2-pound) butternut squash, halved lengthwise
• 1/2 teaspoon olive oil
• 1/2 cup chopped onion
• 1/2 cup chopped carrot
• 3/4 cup vegetable broth
• 1/2 cup water
• 3 tablespoons orange juice
• 1 teaspoon butter
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 3/4 cup uncooked couscous
• 2 tablespoons sweetened dried cranberries
• 1 teaspoon curry powder
• 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 1/4 teaspoon grated orange rind
• 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
• 3/4 cup canned chickpeas (garbanzo beans), rinsed and drained
• 2 tablespoons slivered almonds, toasted
• 1 cup orange juice
• 2 tablespoons honey
• 1/8 teaspoon curry powder
• 1/8 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1. Preheat oven to 350u0b0.
2. Place butternut squash, cut sides down, in a 13 x 9-inch baking pan. Add hot water to pan to a depth of 1/2 inch. Bake at 350u0b0 for 40 minutes or until tender.
3. While squash bakes, heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat; add oil. Add onion and carrot. Reduce heat to medium-low, and cook 20 minutes or until onion is golden and carrot is tender, stirring frequently. Set aside.
4. Bring broth and next 4 ingredients to a boil. Stir in couscous and next 5 ingredients. Remove from heat. Cover and let stand 5 minutes.
5. Remove and discard seeds from squash; scoop out pulp, leaving 1/4-inch-thick shells. Coarsely chop 1 cup pulp, reserving remaining pulp for another use.
6. Combine reserved onion mixture, squash pulp, couscous mixture, chickpeas, and almonds; toss gently. Spoon mixture evenly into squash shells. Place shells in a 13 x 9- inch baking pan. Bake at 350u0b0 for 20 minutes or until thoroughly heated.
7. While shells bake, bring 1 cup orange juice and honey to a boil in a small saucepan. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, 10 to 15 minutes or until mixture reduces to 1/3 cup, stirring occasionally. Stir in curry powder and cinnamon. Drizzle juice mixture evenly over couscous mixture.
