Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil.

  2. Slice a small disc off the bottom of each squash half, this will give you a flat surface for serving. Brush butter over the flesh. Place squash cut-sides down on the baking sheet.

  3. Bake in the preheated oven until tender when pierced with a knife, about 45 minutes.

  4. While squash is baking, mix turkey, Cheddar cheese, sour cream, green onions, green chiles, olives, garlic salt, cumin, pepper, and paprika in a bowl. Set aside.

  5. Stuff cooked squash halves with equal amounts of the turkey filling.

  6. Return to the oven and bake until filling is heated through, 15 to 20 minutes.

Recipe Yield

4 squash halves
