INGREDIENTS
1 half Acorn Squash (205g)
0.33 cup Cooked Quinoa (60g)
0.5 cup Cooked Chickpeas (82g)
0.67 cup Shelled Edamame (100g)
150g Extra Firm Tofu
2 tbsp Dried Cranberries (20g)
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Slice the acorn squash in half lengthwise and scoop out the seeds. Place the halves on a baking sheet, drizzle lightly with olive oil (optional), and season with salt and pepper.
Roast the squash in the oven for about 30-35 minutes or until tender when pierced with a fork.
Meanwhile, prepare the filling. In a bowl, combine the cooked quinoa, cooked chickpeas, shelled edamame, and crumbled extra firm tofu. Add the dried cranberries and season with additional salt and pepper. Toss lightly to incorporate all ingredients.
Once the squash is roasted and tender, remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes. Scoop or gently press the flesh to create a small cavity if needed.
Spoon the quinoa-tofu mixture into the cavity of each squash half, packing it generously.
Return the stuffed squash to the oven for 5-10 minutes to meld the flavors together.
Remove from the oven and serve warm. Enjoy your delicious, nutrient-packed Quinoa-Cranberry Stuffed Acorn Squash!
