Delicata Squash with Nut Stuffing

I've made this twice now and everyone loves it. I tried it with acorn squash and it's just as good. I bet any mild squash would work.

Ingredients

  • 1 ½ tablespoons butter

  • 1 medium yellow onion, finely chopped

  • 2 cloves garlic, minced

  • ½ teaspoon salt

  • 1 ½ teaspoons dried sage

  • 2 ½ tablespoons chopped walnuts

  • 2 ½ tablespoons chopped pistachios

  • 2 ½ tablespoons chopped almonds

  • 2 ½ tablespoons pine nuts

  • cup grated Parmesan cheese, plus extra for topping

  • 2 ½ tablespoons low-fat plain yogurt

  • 1 large egg, lightly beaten

  • 2 small delicata squash, halved lengthwise and seeded

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

  2. Melt butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion, garlic, and salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, until onion is soft, about 3 minutes. Stir in sage and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Stir in walnuts, pistachios, almonds, and pine nuts. Remove from the heat.

  3. Combine 1/3 cup Parmesan cheese, yogurt, and egg in a large bowl. Stir in nut mixture. Divide stuffing among squash halves. Sprinkle with more Parmesan cheese.

  4. Bake in the preheated oven until squash is tender when pierced with a fork and stuffing starts to brown, about 45 minutes. Cut each squash half in half to serve.
