I had some friends over and decided on stuffed squash. My version is a tweak on this recipe. I didn’t want to go to the store so I used what I had on hand.
2 x Butternut Squash - 5 lb = $5.00
Hot Breakfast Sausage - 1 lb = $3.59
White Rice - 1 cup = $.30
Onion - 1 whole = $.50
Garlic - 4 cloves = $.30
Canned Mushrooms - 1 can = $1.29
Frozen Spinach - 1 cup = $.30
Shredded Cheese - 1 cup = $1.00
Parmesan Cheese - 2 tbsp
Olive Oil - 2 tbsp
Ground Sage - 1 tbsp
Salt and Pepper - to taste
Total = $12.28
Cost per person = $3.07
Yup, squash is an underrated fruit IMO. It’s pretty delicious in anything or by itself. So easy to make you can just plop some butter on it and microwave it and it’s delicious.
