Details
Preparation
Step 1
Heat oven to 400 degrees
Halve squash lengthwise, scoop out seeds and place cut-side down on parchment-lined baking sheet. Foast until flesh pierces easily with a fork, about 1 hour.
While squash is roasting, heat oil in medium saucepan over medium heat. Add shallot, thyme and 1/2 t salt; cook till softened, about 1 minute. Add water and quinoa and bring to a simmer. Cover, reduce heat to low; cook till grains are just tender and liquid is absorbed, about 15 minutes.
Scoop flesh from squash centers, leaving a 1/2" border all around; reserve 1/4 C.
Add reserved squash, 1/4 C feta and cranberries to quinoa mix until combined; season with s & p.
Stuff quinoa mix into squash halves; brush with grilling sauce. Bake till quinoa is golden brown, 10-15 minutes. Sprinkle with pepitas and remaining 2 T feta.
