A couple days ago we stuffed mushrooms with a lovely quinoa mixture, and had a bunch leftover.  So last night I cooked one of our very own butternut squashes, and stuffed it with the quinoa mix.  Wow, was it good.  

 

If you want the recipe, here it is:  cut a butternut in half and scoop out the seeds and discard, or save them to plant in the spring.  Cook the squash cut side down for 40 minutes at 350 degrees.  Then turn them right side up and stuff with your favorite savory mixture of rice, quinoa, or whatever grain you like, and cook another 10 minutes.  We grated a little Parmesan cheese on top.  Hey, curry something would be a really good stuffing too;  maybe next time.

 

 

HAPPY COOKING!!!
