Tips and Tricks

• When roasting the squash, cut a thin slice off the bottom of each half to keep them flat on the baking sheet. This makes stuffing easier and ensures even cooking.
• For a deeper flavor, add a splash of Kikkoman® Soy Sauce to the vegetables while sautéing to enhance the savory profile.
• If you're meal prepping, make the filling ahead of time and store it in the fridge. When you're ready, just roast the squash and assemble for an easy, quick dinner.
