I had some friends over and decided on stuffed squash. My version is a tweak on this recipe. I didn’t want to go to the store so I used what I had on hand.
2 x Butternut Squash - 5 lb = $5.00
Hot Breakfast Sausage - 1 lb = $3.59
White Rice - 1 cup = $.30
Onion - 1 whole = $.50
Garlic - 4 cloves = $.30
Canned Mushrooms - 1 can = $1.29
Frozen Spinach - 1 cup = $.30
Shredded Cheese - 1 cup = $1.00
Parmesan Cheese - 2 tbsp
Olive Oil - 2 tbsp
Ground Sage - 1 tbsp
Salt and Pepper - to taste
Total = $12.28
Cost per person = $3.07
me too
I stuff my butternut squash in an entirely different way.
I’m saving this for later. I’m going to go all out with some fancy mushrooms
Looks great!
I don’t know why I don’t bake squash more often. It’s easy to make, hearty, and nutritious. Barely needs more than a little seasoning to be delicious.
Spaghetti squash is fun too, as a sort of noodle replacement…
Yup, squash is an underrated fruit IMO. It’s pretty delicious in anything or by itself. So easy to make you can just plop some butter on it and microwave it and it’s delicious.
Buttnuts!
