Stuffed Acorn Squash

acorn squash (cut

olive oil

lb ground turkey (or ground beef)

baby bella mushrooms (chopped)

honey crisp apples (peeled + chopped in small pieces)

chicken stock

rosemary (chopped finely)

pepper

salt

garlic powder

onion powder

cheese

Preheat oven to 450 degrees

Line a baking sheet with foil or parchment + spray with olive oil to prevent squash from sticking

Slice acorn squash in half, scoop out seeds and place flat on sheet sprayed with olive oil.

Bake the squash for 20 minutes, until it is tender when pierced with a fork

While the squash cooks - heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a pan. Sauté turkey in olive oil for 10-15 minutes until brown.

While the turkey is cooking, chop mushrooms, apples + herbs.

Add in chopped mushrooms, apples, chicken stock, and spices to the pan with the cooked turkey. Sauté for an additional 5 minutes.

When the squash is done, remove from the oven + scoop out most of the cooked center, leaving a little bit of filling in the acorn squash.

Add the squash filling to the turkey/mushroom/apple mixture in the pan+ stir until completely mixed in.

Scoop the turkey/squash mixture back into the squash + top with cheese of choice

Bake them at 450 for 5-10 minutes until cheese melts. Optional: broil for 2-3 minutes so the cheesy gets crispy.
