stuffed squash with shrimps

Shrimp stuffed squash

This shrimp stuffed squash is my first time using acorn squash. This recipe was inspired by one of my favorite chef who verbally suggest to me how I can use the squash I have. Yes my neighbor is a farmer and he gifted me tons of different squashes. I am never tempted to cook squash, I did fried squash couple times already.

I was going for ground beef but since i knew my kids love shrimps more I used shrimps to lure them to try the dish.

All I can say is, it is just like mild sweet potatoes. The dish was flavorful and good. Next time I will use more mea and less veggie in the stuffing.

For this recipe, what you will need is”

Acorn squash about 1 & 1/2 pounds

Cleaned deveined medium shrimps

Bell peppers

Seasonings
