Stuffed Summer Squash Boats

• 4 large yellow squash (straight-neck variety)
• 1 tablespoon olive oil, plus more for drizzling
• 2 Italian turkey sausages, casings removed (about 8 ounces)
• 1/2 small red onion, finely chopped
• 1 pint grape tomatoes, sliced in half
• Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
• 1/3 cup panko breadcrumbs
• 1/4 cup Parmesan
• 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley

1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
2. Put the squash in a 12-inch high-sided skillet, cover halfway with water and bring to a simmer.
3. Turn to low, cover with a lid and cook until tender crisp, about 8 minutes.
4. Set the squash aside to cool.
5. Drain the water from the skillet, wipe dry and place over medium-high heat.
6. Add the oil and once hot, stir in the turkey sausage.
7. Cook, stirring, until almost cooked through, about 4 minutes.
8. Stir in the onions and cook until softened, about 4 minutes more.
9. Toss in the tomatoes, season with a big pinch of salt and pepper and cook until the tomatoes start to break down a bit, 1 more minute.
10. Set aside to cool.
11. While the mixture is cooling, trim the ends of the squash, slice in half lengthwise and scoop out the seeds with a spoon, making a boat shape.
12. Chop up the centers and combine with the sausage filling.
13. Spoon the mixture into the shells, mounding them high, and place on a baking sheet.
14. Mix together the panko, Parmesan and chopped parsley in a small bowl and sprinkle on top of the stuffed squash.
15. Drizzle everything with olive oil and bake until golden on top, about 25 minutes.
