For a vegetarian option, substitute vegetable broth for chicken broth. Add toasted pecans or cranberries to the stuffing for extra flavor and texture. If you don't have aluminum foil, you can bake the squash uncovered, but it may take a little longer to become tender. To check for doneness, pierce the squash flesh with a fork. It should be very tender and easily pierced.
