Provided by Cat Marsha

Time 1h25m

Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 (1 pound) acorn squash, halved and seeded
3 tablespoons olive oil, divided
8 medium button mushrooms, chopped
1 medium onion, chopped
3 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
2 sprigs fresh thyme, leaves stripped and chopped
½ cup uncooked white rice
1 cup chicken broth
1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese
salt and ground black pepper to taste
1 tablespoon panko bread crumbs, or to taste

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
  • Brush cut sides of squash with 1 tablespoon olive oil and place, skin-side up, on a baking sheet.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until tender and lightly browned, about 40 minutes.
  • While squash bakes, heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a skillet over medium heat; stir in mushrooms, onion, garlic, and thyme. Cook and stir until soft, about 5 minutes. Add rice; cook and stir until rice is coated, about 1 minute. Pour in chicken broth and bring to a boil.

  • Remove squash from the oven, flip over, and season with salt and pepper. Fill squash with rice mixture, sprinkle with panko, and drizzle with remaining olive oil.
  • Return to the oven and bake until heated through, about 10 minutes. Turn on the broiler and broil until panko is brown and crispy, 2 to 3 minutes.

  • Stuffed Acorn Squash with Cornbread. With lots of fragrant fall herbs, these cornbread stuffing-filled acorn squash halves make a great vegan main dish or a Thanksgiving substitute for those who don't eat turkey.
  • Vegan Quinoa-stuffed Acorn Squash. High-protein quinoa makes a great filling for acorn squash that turn the vegetable into a main. Candied or toasted pecans, raisins, and balsamic vinegar give the filling an autumnal flavor that complements the slightly sweet squash perfectly.
  • Barley Stuffed Acorn Squash. Pearl barley has a nutty, hearty texture that makes a delicious stuffing for acorn squash, especially when combined with chopped carrot, celery, onion, and veggie broth.
  • Barbecue or Baked Stuffed Squash. To give your meal some vegetarian barbecue flare, stuff acorn squash halves with this delicious baked bean mixture. These work as a fiber-rich main dish or a unique side for a fall cookout.
  • Baked Stuffed Acorn Squash with Beef and Tomatoes. For a savory take on acorn squash, try this tomato and beef dish. The stuffing gets its flavor from tomatoes, green and red peppers, and just a little cinnamon that will warm you from the inside out.
  • Crunchy Acorn Squash Stuffing with Za'atar. Slivered almonds give this fragrant stuffing a little crunch, while adding za'atar to the classic rosemary, thyme, and sage mixture.

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit and line a large, rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper for easy clean-up.
  • To prepare the squash, use a sharp chef’s knife to slice through it from the tip to the stem. I find it easiest to pierce the squash in the center along a depression line, then cut through the tip, and finish by slicing through the top portion just next to the stem. Use a large spoon to scoop out the seeds and stringy bits inside, and discard those pieces.
  • Place the squash halves cut side up on the parchment-lined pan. Drizzle 1 tablespoon of the olive oil over the squash, and sprinkle with 1/4 teaspoon of the salt. Rub the oil into the cut sides of the squash, then turn them over so the cut sides are against the pan. Bake until the squash flesh is easily pierced through by a fork, about 30 to 45 minutes. Leave the oven on.
  • Meanwhile, cook the quinoa: In a medium saucepan, combine the rinsed quinoa and water. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce the heat as necessary to maintain a gentle simmer. Simmer, uncovered, until all of the water is absorbed, 12 to 18 minutes. Remove the pot from the heat and stir in the cranberries. Cover, and let the mixture steam for 5 minutes. Uncover and fluff the quinoa with a fork.
