Delicata Squash with Nut Stuffing image

I've made this twice now and everyone loves it. I tried it with acorn squash and it's just as good. I bet any mild squash would work.

Ingredients

1 ½ tablespoons butter
1 medium yellow onion, finely chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
½ teaspoon salt
1 ½ teaspoons dried sage
2 ½ tablespoons chopped walnuts
2 ½ tablespoons chopped pistachios
2 ½ tablespoons chopped almonds
2 ½ tablespoons pine nuts
⅓ cup grated Parmesan cheese
2 ½ tablespoons low-fat plain yogurt
1 large egg, lightly beaten
2 small delicata squash, halved lengthwise and seeded

Steps:

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
Melt butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion, garlic, and salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, until onion is soft, about 3 minutes. Stir in sage and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Stir in walnuts, pistachios, almonds, and pine nuts. Remove from the heat.
Combine 1/3 cup Parmesan cheese, yogurt, and egg in a large bowl. Stir in nut mixture. Divide stuffing among squash halves. Sprinkle with more Parmesan cheese.
Bake until acorn squash is tender when pierced with a fork and stuffing starts to brown, about 45 minutes.
Cut each piece in half to serve.
