Time 55m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 medium acorn squash, halved and seeded
1 ⅔ cups water
1 tablespoon vegetable soup base
1 ¾ cups Israeli couscous (such as Osem®)
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 tablespoons olive oil
salt and ground black pepper to taste
5 baby portobello mushrooms, or more to taste, thinly sliced
1 leek, thinly sliced
½ red bell pepper, finely chopped
2 tablespoons olive oil

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Grease a baking sheet.
  • Place squash, cut-sides down, on the prepared baking sheet.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until squash is soft to the touch, about 30 minutes.
  • While the squash is baking, bring water and bouillon to a boil over medium-high heat. Add couscous and garlic, cover, and lower to a simmer. Cook until water has been absorbed, 8 to 10 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, heat oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add mushrooms, leek, and bell pepper; saute until tender, about 5 minutes. Add couscous and mix to combine.
  • Remove squash from the oven and stuff with the couscous-veggie mixture.

The Israeli couscous was a bit too dry for my taste. I think I would add more liquid next time.

I had some trouble getting the acorn squash tender. I think I would roast it for a little longer next time.

This dish was a bit too bland for my taste. I think I would add more herbs and spices next time.
