This is a summer staple at my house for dinner. I make this fried squash 4 to 5 times a week and my daughter always request it when she comes to visit. Even my grandson loves it!
INGREDIENTS
- 1 lb sausage, cooked (I used Jimmy Dean)
- 1 bell pepper
- 1 onion
- 1 8oz cream cheese
- 4 to 6oz Parmesan cheese
- 4 to 6 oz cheddar or cheese of choice
- Squash or zucchini (about 8 medium) cut in half and seeds scrapped out
- Bacon (I used thick cut pepper bacon)
DIRECTIONS
Cut the squash in half and scrape out seeds
In a bowl mix cooked sausage, onion, pepper, cream cheese, Parmesan and colby or cheddar cheese. (I place everything in my stand mixer to blend ). Fill squash with sausage mixture. Wrap with bacon.
Place in foiled lined pan (this will save you a ton on clean up) and place squash with sausage side up.
Bake at 400 degrees for 30 – 45 minutes depending on the size of the squash. I cooked the small squash for 30 minutes and the larger ones for 45 minutes.
