Feast your eyes on this wonderful spinach & mushroom stuffed butternut squash recipe, paired with slices of avocado over a bed of warm and fluffy quinoa. Eating healthy can be wonderful sometimes.
Ingredients:
Step 1: Cook Quinoa
Start by rinsing the quinoa in a sieve until the water is clear. Drain and transfer the quinoa to a medium-sized pot. Add 2 cups of water (and a bit of salt if wanted) and bring to a boil. Cover the pot, reduce heat to medium and let it simmer for 15 to 20 minutes, or until the water is absorbed.
Step 2: Prepare Butternut Squash & Stuffing
Next, cut the butternut squash in half, drizzle it with oil and bake in the oven for 30 minutes. While this is baking, heat up oil in a pan and cook the minced garlic, spinach and mushroom.
Step 3: Plate & Serve
You'll know your butternut squash is done when you can easily cut it with a fork. Grab the spinach/mushroom/garlic mixture and spoon it into the squash. Serve it with slices of avocado and half a lemon over a bed of quinoa. Top with black sesame and hemp seeds. Enjoy!
