Dinner 1 Hr. 25 Mins.

Ingredients

4

4 servings

  • 1 (2 pound) butternut squash, halved and seeded
  • 8 ounces bulk pork sausage
  • ¼ cup chopped onion
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • ⅓ cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • ½ cup soft bread crumbs
  • ½ teaspoon dried parsley
  • ½ teaspoon dried oregano
  • ¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Place squash halves in a shallow pan and cover with water.
  • Roast in the preheated oven until tender, 35 to 45 minutes. Remove from the oven and cool partially, about 10 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Meanwhile, heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir sausage in the hot skillet until browned and crumbly, 5 to 7 minutes; do not drain fat. Add onion and garlic to sausage and cook and stir over medium-high heat until onion has softened, about 5 minutes.
  • Remove flesh from squash, leaving 1/3-inch flesh in the shell to keep it sturdy. Mix squash flesh, sausage mixture, Parmesan cheese, bread crumbs, parsley, oregano, and cayenne together in a bowl. Stuff squash shells with mixture.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes.
