Steps:
- Bake the squash: Place a rack in the center of the oven and preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. With a sharp, sturdy chef's knife, carefully cut the squash in half from stem to base. Scoop out and discard the stringy core and seeds. Arrange the halves cut-sides up on a rimmed baking sheet. Brush each half with 1 teaspoon olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Place in the oven and bake for 40 minutes, until the edges begin to wrinkle and the flesh is fork-tender. Set aside. Reduce the oven temperature to 375 degrees F.
- While the squash bakes, prepare the filling: Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the sausage. Brown the meat, breaking it apart into small pieces for 3 minutes.
- Add the mushrooms, onion, apple, salt, pepper, nutmeg, allspice, and minced garlic. Cook, stirring frequently, until the sausage is cooked through, the vegetables and apple are softened, have given up liquid, and the liquid has cooked off, about 8 additional minutes.
- When the squash is cool enough to handle, scoop out its flesh, leaving a wall all the way around that is about ¼-inch thick. Add the scooped squash to the pan with the sausage. Add the herbs and ¼ cup Parmesan. Stir to combine. Taste and adjust salt and pepper as desired.
- Mound the filling inside of the hollowed squash halves. Sprinkle the remaining Parmesan over the top. Place the pan in the oven and bake until the cheese is melted and the filling is nice and hot, about 15 minutes. Sprinkle with additional fresh herbs as desired. Serve hot.

SAUSAGE & MUSHROOM STUFFED SQUASH
Familiar ingredients make this dish comforting for me. The cheddar cheese is the same kind my family has used for years to make grilled cheese sandwiches. And the croutons remind me of Thanksgiving dinners. -Eliane Oneyear, River Forest, Illinois

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
- For the mushrooms: If your mushrooms caps are very rounded, trim a very thin slice from the top of the caps to help them sit upright for baking. Toss the mushroom caps with the olive oil and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a large bowl.
- For the filling: Heat the butter over medium-high heat. Add the chopped mushroom stems and squash and cook, stirring occasionally, until just soft, 6 to 8 minutes. Scrape into a large bowl, season with 3/4 teaspoon salt and set aside to cool.
- Add the sausage, Asiago and scallions to the cooled mushroom stem mixture. Stir in the cornbread until well moistened.
- Pack each mushroom with an equal amount of filling and transfer the filled mushrooms to a rimmed baking sheet. Bake until the mushrooms are tender and the filling is brown and crispy on top, about 15 minutes. Let cool 5 minutes before removing from the baking sheet.
STUFFED MUSHROOMS WITH CREAM CHEESE & SAUSAGE
I first had these back in high school - too many years ago to think about now. I've been making them ever since. Now, whenever any of my friends have a get-together, I'm expected to bring them! You've been warned!! They're addictive.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 Fahrenheit.
- Separate caps and stems while cleaning the mushrooms.
- If cleaning with water, let them drain for a bit.
- Start cooking the sausage in frying pan, at a medium to medium/high temperature.
- While the sausage is cooking, put the cream cheese into a mixing bowl so it can soften and mince the stem pieces.
- Spice the sausage to taste. Garlic is a good addition.
- Just before the sausage is done, add the stem pieces and finish cooking.
- Drain off the excess grease and add the sausage/stem mixture into the cream cheese.
- Mix together well using a wooden spoon or your hands. Be careful, as it will be rather hot.
- Set the caps into a 13x9 pan (or larger) with sides.
- Optional! Melt enough butter to just put a little in the bottom of each cap or just brush some over the top of each after they're filled. You can put any extra butter in the bottom of the pan.
- Fill the caps with the cream cheese/sausage/stem mix.
- Add a small amount of water to the bottom of the pan, just enough to cover the bottom.
- Bake for 30 to 45 minutes, or until the tops are crusty and the mushrooms have turned dark.
- Scoop them out of the pan with a slotted spoon and arrange them on a plate.
- Serve warm. They reheat well, so you can make them ahead of time.
- *VARIATION 1: Add dried bread crumbs to the mix to make a larger batch without adding more cream cheese or sausage. Onions are also another popular addition.
- *VARIATION 2: Use one 8oz. box of cream cheese to two 8oz. pkgs of sausage. It makes for a larger batch that is less rich and tastes just as good.
- *FUN HINTS: The cream cheese mix is also very good on bread or crackers! This comes in handy if you you think there might be someone who doesn't like mushrooms - save some of the mix to the side for them to dip with.
