Mushroom and Sage Stuffed Acorn Squash

Author Becky's Mindful Kitchen

Ingredients

  • Acorn Squash halved and seeds scooped out
  • Wild Rice
  • Mushrooms diced
  • Onions diced
  • Celery chopped
  • garlic minced
  • Cranberries
  • Walnuts/Pecans
  • Wild Mushroom and Sage Olive Oil or extra virgin olive oil
  • Truffle Oil
  • Fresh or Dried Sage chopped
  • Fresh or Dried Rosemary chopped
  • Unrefined Sea Salt
  • Fresh Pepper

Optional

  • Ground pork or
  • Italian sausage
  • Grated Cheese

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
  • Bake squash halves until you can easily slide a fork into the squash.
  • Remove and set aside.
  • Meanwhile, prepare the stuffing. You can cook the rice ahead of time or simply add more vegetables and omit the rice. I sauteed the onions first with the sage and mushroom olive oil.
  • Then add in the rest of the ingredients, saving the cranberries for last.
  • Mix in the rice and season to taste with the truffle oil. The amount of herbs and vegetables is up to you.
  • Add in cooked ground pork or sausage and add stuffing to the halved squashes.
  • Sprinkle with cheese and bake for another 10-15 minutes until cheese is melted.
  • Enjoy!
