Instructions

  • Heat oven to 425°F.

  • Rub olive oil, pepper, and salt evenly over both butternut squash halves. Place halves cut side up in a baking dish large enough to hold both halves.

  • Bake squash for 35-45 minutes, or until fork tender. Remove squash from the oven and let it cool slightly, until you can handle it safely.

  • Using a spoon, carefully (trying not to break the outer shell) scoop out most of the flesh from the squash into a bowl. Add yogurt and 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese to the bowl. Mash and mix thoroughly to combine everything together.

  • Spoon the squash mixture back into the shell, and sprinkle the tops with remaining Parmesan cheese.

  • NOTE: For a crunchier texture, broil for a couple of minutes until golden brown. Serve warm.
