Stuffed butternut squash is filled with only five ingredients, but packed with flavor. The combination of sweet butternut squash, spicy Italian sausage, quinoa, and tangy goat cheese is the perfect protein-packed fall meal.
Place the butternut squash flesh side up on a sheet pan lined with parchment paper. Brush melted butter on the flesh of each side of the squash. Season with salt and pepper. Place in the oven to roast for 1 hour or until you can poke a knife through the flesh.
Remove the casing from the Italian sausage. Add the sausage to a heated skillet and break it into crumbles using a wooden spoon. Cook until no pink remains and the sausage is cooked through.
