Stuffed Butternut Squash
- 1 large butternut squash
- 1 small zucchini
- 1/4 large red onion
- a few large white mushrooms
- 1 carrot
- 1 cup breadcrumbs
- 1 tsp thyme
- 1 tsp basil
- 1tsp ground mustard
- salt and pepper to taste
- 1 tsp paprika
- 1/4 cup grated Romano cheese
- 1/2 cup Kraft shredded cheddar cheese (lactose-free)
- Bake a whole butternut squash in the oven for 10 mins on 400.
- While the squash is in the oven, clean and dice the vegetables. Mix it all well in a bowl with all of the spices.
- Slice the squash in half lengthwise and bake the halves for another 15 minutes. Use an ice cream scooper or thick spoon to dig out the two halves. Leave about a half inch of squash around the edges.
- Fill the two halves with the vegetable mix. Put a few pats of butter or margarine on top.
- Cover the bottom of a large Pyrex baking dish with a little olive oil or whatever you like. Put the two squash halves in the Pyrex and put it in to bake at 375 for 40 minutes.
- Take it out, sprinkle the cheese on top. Sprinkle the breadcrumbs on top of that, and bake for another 10-15 minutes.
- To serve, scoop out the baked insides onto a warm plate and enjoy!
