Sausage and Apple Stuffed Acorn Squash Recipe by Tasty image

Here's what you need: small acorn squashes, onion, celery, olive oil, salt, pepper, fresh rosemary, garlic, sausage, apple, panko breadcrumbs, parmesan cheese

Provided by Tasty

Categories     Sides

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 small acorn squashes, or 1 large
1 onion, chopped
2 stalks celery, chopped
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon pepper
1 teaspoon fresh rosemary
3 cloves garlic, chopped
½ lb sausage
1 apple, chopped
1 cup panko breadcrumbs
½ cup parmesan cheese

Steps:

  • Using a sharp knife cut off the very top and bottom of each squash to create a flat base on each side (being careful not to cut through the center cavity).
  • Slice the squash in half, scrape out seeds to create individual bowls for the stuffing.
  • Drizzle each squash half with olive oil, salt, and pepper.
  • Roast in a preheated oven at 400˚F (200˚C) for 40-50 minutes - or until fork tender.
  • While squash is roasting - in a large fry pan over medium heat - heat oil and add Onion, Celery, Salt, Pepper, and Rosemary. Cook until onions begin to soften.
  • Add Garlic and Sausage, until sausage is browned on all sides.
  • Add Apple until slightly softened. Finally mix in Bread Crumbs and Parmesan cheese just until incorporated. Remove from heat.
  • Once Squash has finished roasting (when you can easily poke it with a fork) remove from oven and fill each with prepared stuffing mixture.
  • Return to Oven for 20 minutes - adding a sprinkle of Parmesan cheese to the top for the final 5 minutes.
  • Enjoy!
