BAKED BUTTERNUT SQUASH AND ITALIAN SAUSAGE STUFFING
I got this recipe from Marcy while at the Bargain Shop on Joint Base Elmemdorf/Ft Richardson, Alaska for stuffed butternut squash and combined it with a recipe from Pioneer Woman of how to roast Butternut Squash. In my version, the Butternut Squash is cubed, after peeling and baked in butter until soft, then the meat mixture is combined. This makes a wonderfully filling casserole. Note: In Marcy's original recipe the bowl of the squash, where the seeds were, is filled with the sausage mixture.
