Ingredients
- 2 Delicata squash (halved longways, seeds removed)
- 2 links Vegan Italian sausage (crumbled (184 grams) )
- 6 Crimini mushroom tops (finely diced.)
- 2 sprigs Rosemary
- 1 cup Arugula (or spinach, other leafy green)
- ½ cup Parmesan (grated.)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425º Fahrenheit.
- Begin by using a very sharp knife to cut off the top stem of the squash. Then, very carefully cut the squash in half longways.
- Use a metal spoon to scrape the seeds out of the inside until completely clean.
- Spray or drizzle the inside of the squash with olive oil, along with the sheet pan.
- Roast at 425º Fahrenheit for 20 minutes, until the squash is fork tender.
- Remove and set to the side.
- Crumble the meatless sausage with your fingers, or mince with a knife.
- Finely chop the mushroom caps and give the arugula a rough chop.
- Remove rosemary from the stems and roughly chop it into small pieces.
- In a nonstick pan, add about 1 tablespoon olive oil and the crumbled sausage.
- Sauté until browned.
- Add the chopped mushrooms and continue to sauté until cooked.
- Remove the pan from the heat and add rosemary and arugula and grated parmesan.
- Stir to combine until the arugula has wilted and the parmesan is mostly melted.
- Turn the oven to 300º Fahrenheit.
- Gently scoop the sausage filling into the cavity of the squash.
- Fill until just slightly over the top of the squash.
- Top with more grated cheese and put back into the oven for 5 minutes or until the parmesan starts to melt and/or brown.
- Optional, but you may want to broil for 2-3 minutes to brown the cheese further.
- Serve warm and enjoy!
