Recipe Summary Sausage-Stuffed Turban Squash

Turban squash is a winter squash that looks like a pumpkin wearing a striped green turban. The texture is similar to pumpkin and butternut squash. This recipe has been a long time favorite at Thanksgiving with my family.

Ingredients | Sausage Stuffed Acorn Squash Paleo

3 pounds turban squash

salt to taste

1 pound bulk pork sausage

1 cup chopped celery

½ cup sliced fresh mushrooms

¼ cup chopped onion

½ cup sour cream

¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese

1 egg, slightly beaten

¼ teaspoon salt

Directions

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and lightly grease foil.

Cut the top off the squash using a serrated knife and scoop out seeds. Lightly salt the inside of squash. Place squash, cut-side down, onto the prepared baking sheet.

Bake in the preheated oven until tender, about 1 hour.

Cook and stir sausage, celery, mushrooms, and onion in a skillet over medium heat until sausage is browned and vegetables are tender, 10 to 15 minutes; drain excess grease.

Combine sour cream, Parmesan cheese, egg, and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a bowl. Stir sausage mixture into sour cream mixture.

Scoop the meat from the inside of squash, being careful not to tear the skin. Mash squash meat in a bowl.

Spoon some of the sausage mixture into the hollowed squash, making a ring. Spoon a ring of mashed squash over sausage mixture. Continue layering until all the sausage mixture and mashed squash are used.

Bake in the oven until heated through, 20 to 25 minutes.
