There are countless variations of vegetables, grains, and beans you can use to created stuffed squash. A corn, cooked quinoa, black bean combo would be quite delicious! If you happen to eat cheese, I would consider topping each stuffed, halved squash with shredded raw, organic jack cheese! If you have extra filling, heat it in a small covered pot over medium heat for about 10 minutes. Then use to fill warmed corn or rice tortillas. Serve stuffed squash with a mixed green and arugula salad with a lime vinaigrette and sliced avocados.
