Roasted Acorn Squash with Curry Stuffing - Vegan Thanksgiving

2 acorn squash, halved and cleaned

3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, divided

2 garlic cloves, minced

sea salt and pepper

1 onion, finely diced

3 teaspoons curry powder

1/4 cup golden raisins or currants

1 cup cooked whole grain of choice

1/2 cup parsley, chopped

1 zucchini, diced

1/2 cup toasted pumpkin seeds, chopped

 

 

 

 

 

Preheat the oven to 375°F.

 

Cut a small slice of each half of acorn squash from the bottom so it

can sit flat on a baking sheet. Brush the squash with about 2

tablespoons of olive oil and sprinkle garlic, sea salt, and pepper

over top. Place in the preheated oven and bake for 35 minutes.

 

While the squash is cooking, heat the remaining oil in a skillet. Add

the onions, curry powder, and raisins or currants and sauté for about

3 minutes. Add the cooked grains and continue to cook for an

additional 5 minutes. Remove from heat and mix in parsley and

zucchini.

 

After the 35 minutes, fill each squash cup with stuffing, top with

chopped pumpkin seeds, and return to the oven to bake an additional 15

to 20 minutes or until squash is tender. Serve warm.

 

 

Serves 4

This easy recipe is a great way to enjoy seasonal ingredients and use

up some leftover cooked whole grains. Any grain will work, but I

especially recommend millet, brown rice, and/or barley.
