stuffed squash

Packed vegetable dish

Stuffed squash is a dish in which a hollowed-out squash serves as an edible vessel for a filling—typically rice, meat, vegetables, or cheese.

The squash is baked until tender.

Many cuisines have versions: Middle Eastern kousa mahshi uses zucchini, while American fall recipes often feature acorn or delicata squash with savory or sweet fillings.
