Рецепт Rice Stuffed Acorn Squash
- Rice (and veggie) Stuffed Acorn Squash
- 2 Acorn Squash
- 3 c. Rice, cooked
- 1 c. Carrots, diced
- 1/2 c. Onion, diced
- 1/2 c. Celery, diced
- Salt/Pepper
- Olive Oil
- Cheddar Cheese optional for top
2. Place 2-4 halves of the squash in your microwave for about 12 minutes. (Depending on the size of your microwave, you may just have to do it one squash at a time.)
3. While you are waiting on the micro, sauté the carrots, onion and celery in a tablespoon or so of Olive Oil. Then remove from heat.
4. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Once the squash has been cooked in the micro, it will be time to scoop out some of the innards. Start with a fork and go gently around the edge, and then down the middle. Don't take out too much of the flesh because it is needed for stability. Leave about 1/2" of flesh all the way around. Save the flesh for the filling.
6. Start filling the acorn squash halves. Keep filling until the stuffing is gone. There should be a nice mound on top of of each half of squash.
7. Once all of the squash are filled, bake in a 350 degree oven for 30 minutes. (If you choose to top with cheese, put it on top when there are about 10 minutes left on the timer.)
Serve and enjoy! :)
