Steps:
- Position an oven rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 400°F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil and set aside.
- Place the squash in a medium bowl and add 3 tablespoons of the oil, the thyme and 2 teaspoons of salt and season with pepper to taste. Mix until the squash is well coated. Transfer to the prepared baking sheet and spread squash out into a single layer. Roast until a paring knife slides into the squash with no resistance, about 30 minutes, stirring about halfway through the cooking time. Put the pistachios on a small baking sheet and toast until fragrant, about 5 minutes.
- Meanwhile, rinse the quinoa in cold water in a fine-mesh strainer. Bring the broth or water to a boil and stir in the quinoa. Simmer, uncovered, until a small white spiral becomes visible in each grain, about 9 minutes. Drain the quinoa and transfer it to a medium bowl. Add the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil, the pistachios, cranberries, vinegar, 1/2 teaspoon salt and pepper to taste.
- Place the spinach in a large mixing bowl and toss with the hot squash until slightly wilted. Add the quinoa mixture and toss again. Serve warm or at room temperature.
QUINOA-STUFFED SQUASH BOATS
My colorful "boats" with quinoa, garbanzo beans and pumpkin seeds use delicata squash, a winter squash with edible skin that's cream-colored with green stripes. In a pinch, acorn squash will do-but don't eat the skin! -Lauren Knoelke, Milwaukee, Wisconsin

- Preheat the oven to 190 C. Cut the butternut squash in half lengthways, scoop out the seeds, season and drizzle the halves with a little oil (about 1-1.5 tbsp).
- Roast for about 55-65 minutes until golden brown. It is ready when it starts caramelizing around the edges and is tender (check with a fork).Start making the filling whilst the butternut squash is roasting. That way when the squash comes out of the oven you’ll be able to stuff it straight away.
- Cook the quinoa according to packet instructions. In the meantime fry the mushrooms with 2 tablespoons of oil over a high heat for 4-5 minutes until the water has been absorbed (the mushrooms release lots of moisture). Season to taste and set aside until the butternut squash is cooked.
- Remove the butternut squash from the oven (keep the oven on). Scoop out some of the pulp from the middle (not too much, just to create more space for the filling) and chop roughly. Combine the pulp with the cooked quinoa, mushrooms, dried cranberries, onion granules and parmesan. Season generously.
