How to Make Stuffed Patty Pan Squash

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Bring 1 inch of water to a boil in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat.
  3. Add patty pan squash, cover, and simmer for 10-12 minutes, or until a fork can easily pierce the stem.
  4. Carefully remove squash from saucepan and drain well.
  5. Slice off the top stem of each squash.
  6. Using a melon baller or small spoon, gently scoop out the centers of the squash, reserving the scooped squash flesh. (Note: Larger squash may have excess liquid; drain if necessary.)
  7. Finely mince the reserved squash flesh.
  8. In a medium bowl, combine the minced squash with the remaining ingredients (see ingredient list below), mixing thoroughly.
  9. Generously stuff each patty pan squash with the mixture.
  10. Arrange the stuffed squash in a baking dish.
  11. Loosely cover the dish with aluminum foil.
  12. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the squash is tender and heated through. Remove foil during the last 5 minutes of baking to allow the tops to brown slightly.
