Stuffed Squash

Post Training Stuffed Squash

Taken from the Performance Menu, slightly adapted.

1 small acorn squash
7oz Morning Star Meal Starters, Crumbles
1/2 cup whole dried cranberries
Paprika to taste

1. Cut around the stem end of the squash and remove, much like how you would start if carving a pumpkin. With a spoon, dig out the seeds and pulp. Cut a flat spot on the bottom of the squash, so it will stand up. Place the squash on a baking pan, bake at 400 degrees for 25 minutes.

2. Brown the Meal Starters Crumbles in a skillet, adding the cranberries and paprika. After 25 minutes, remove the squash and fill the cavity with the above cooked mixture. Return the squash to the oven for 15 more minutes. Allow to cool before eating!



I haven't tried the original recipe from the Performance Menu due to it containing ground turkey, but I do like the cranberry substitution from the suggested fruit of pineapple or raisins.
