SUMMER SQUASH AND SAUSAGE STEW



Summer Squash and Sausage Stew image

This simple squash and sausage stew represents my idea of the perfect summer supper. It's very comforting, relatively fast, wonderfully flavorful, and helps solve a problem that's existed since neighbors started planting gardens: what to do with all that squash! Serve it with a big slice of crusty bread for dipping into the broth.

SAUSAGE AND RICE STUFFED SUMMER SQUASH



Sausage and Rice Stuffed Summer Squash image

This is a variation on stuffed acorn squash recipe on this site; I changed enough things that it's a recipe all its own! It passed muster with my husband who doesn't like anything and my son who doesn't eat anything, so it's a winner in my house. Very good with French bread! I recommend spicy or at least medium sausage.

Time 1h25m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 summer squash, halved the long way and seeded
2 cups water
1 tablespoon margarine
1 (5.7 ounce) package dry Cheddar-broccoli rice mix
½ pound bulk pork sausage
6 small mushrooms, chopped
2 teaspoons ground coriander
½ teaspoon salt
1 apple, cored and chopped
⅓ cup toasted chopped pecans
½ cup shredded Cheddar cheese
1 tablespoon butter, melted
1 tablespoon grated Parmesan cheese, or as needed

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Place the squash halves cut sides down into a baking dish, and pour in enough water to cover the bottom of the pan.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until the squash is tender, about 30 minutes.
  • While the squash is baking, bring 2 cups of water to a boil in a saucepan over medium heat, and stir in the margarine and the contents of the rice package. Reduce heat to a simmer, and cook until rice is tender, about 7 minutes. Set the prepared rice aside.
  • Heat a large skillet over medium heat, and cook the sausage, mushrooms, coriander, and salt (if needed) until the sausage is browned, about 10 minutes. Drain excess grease. Mix the sausage mixture with the cooked rice mixture in a bowl, and lightly stir in the apple, pecans, and Cheddar cheese.
  • Pour melted butter into a baking dish, and place the squash, hollow sides up, into the dish. Stuff the rice and sausage mixture into the squash, allowing the stuffing to mound up and overflow into the dish if necessary. Sprinkle the stuffed squash with Parmesan cheese.
  • Return to oven, and bake until the stuffing is hot and the cheese topping has browned, about 30 more minutes.

SUMMER SQUASH WITH POTATOES AND SAUSAGE



Summer Squash With Potatoes and Sausage image

I was hungry last night and had these ingredients on hand. I decided to mix them and see what would happen. This was so good, I'd make it again (reheated leftovers were a good lunch today, too). And it's inexpensive when the veggies are in season. It's versatile and forgiving - ingredients can be substituted easily. This would also be a nice meat-free dish without the sausage. Quite filling on its own.
