    Turkey: Dinner in a Squash


    Source of Recipe


    Dawna- Cilantro Platoon

    List of Ingredients




    1 medium (approx. 5-10lb) squash...I used pumpkin
    1 lb turkey burger (ground turkey)
    Garlic as desired
    1 medium onion chopped
    1/4 c. cilantro
    5-6 lg seeded tomatoes (peeled and chopped)
    1/2 tsp oregano or Italian seasoning
    2 c. uncooked rice
    4 c. chicken broth or water
    pepper
    Tabasco (to taste)

    Recipe



    Preheat oven to 350. Cut top off squash (like you are going to carve it) Clean out the pulp and seeds. Put top back on and bake for 2-3 hours until soft, but not ready to cave in on itself.

    Cook turkey, onions and spices together, then add rice and broth. Take squash out of oven, take off top, and fill with turkey/rice mixture. Put lid back on, and return to oven for 1 hour or until all the liquid is absorbed into the rice.

    Variations....can use diced chicken, or shrimp also.
    This used to be a favorite of mine, and I have adapted it a bit, because I used to make it with Can of mushroom soup.....
