Ingredients
Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 200°C.
-
Cut the butternut squash in half lengthwise and remove the seeds. Place the squash halves on a baking sheet, drizzle with olive oil, and sprinkle with salt, black pepper, and paprika.
-
Roast the squash in the preheated oven for 30-40 minutes, or until tender.
-
Meanwhile, heat a teaspoon of olive oil in a pan over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and minced garlic, and sauté until translucent.
-
Add the spinach to the pan and cook until wilted. Remove from heat.
-
Once the roasted squash is cool enough to handle, scoop out the flesh and transfer it to a bowl. Mash the squash with a fork.
-
Add the sautéed onion, garlic, and spinach mixture to the mashed squash. Crumble in the feta cheese and mix well.
-
Transfer the mixture back into the hollowed-out squash shells. Top with bread crumbs.
-
Return the stuffed squash to the oven and bake for an additional 10 minutes, or until the bread crumbs are golden brown.
-
Let the squash rest for 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy!
