It's not only packed with nutrients but also visually stunning, making it an excellent choice for holiday dinners, special occasions, or even a comforting weekday meal.
- Make sure to preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and roast the acorn squash halves until they are tender, approximately 30-40 minutes.
- For a creamier filling, blend the tofu mixture until smooth before mixing in the mushrooms and spinach.
- If fresh spinach is available, you can use it instead of frozen. Just sauté it first to remove excess moisture.
- Feel free to add additional herbs, such as thyme or rosemary, to enhance the flavor profile of the filling.
- Don’t overstuff the squash; excessive filling may spill over and not bake evenly.
- To add a crunchy texture, consider sprinkling some chopped nuts or breadcrumbs on top before baking.
- This dish can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator. Reheat in the oven before serving for the best texture and flavor.
