One Fall I went to a farm that had a huge display of fall/winter squash. These are just some of the squash I left with… I spent an entire day coming up with recipes (not thinking when I bought them that I’d have to find a way to serve them). Tyler Florence stuffed acorn squash with tortellini in one of his cookbooks. I thought that was a fabulous idea, but I wanted something that could either be a side dish for holidays or served alone as a main meal. This was my take on Tyler’s dish. To stuff my roasted squash, I used my Stove top Mac and Cheese recipe, topped it with cheese, and stuck it under the broiler for a few minutes to melt and brown the cheese. I used white cheddar, but you can use any cheese you want.
Step by Step Instructions
Start by cutting the squash in half. Remove the seeds. Coat the squash in cooking spray. Place the squash on a baking tray and roast it for 45 minutes. Remove any cooking liquid and transfer it to an oven-safe serving dish. Stuff each one with a generous mound of the mac and cheese and top with shredded cheese. Place under the broiler for a few minutes to melt & brown the cheese. Serve hot. Erren’s Kitchen is written and produced for informational intentions only.
