Stuffed Butternut Squash

Dinner parties and special occasions like Thanksgiving can be difficult if you’re the lone vegetarian at the table.  Conscientious hosts usually prepare something that will be vegetarian-friendly but all too often our poor veggie-loving friends are left trying to fill up on side dishes like potatoes.  I have many friends who are vegetarians including my brother-in-law Dan so I always try to come up with something creative that will appeal to him but that everyone else can enjoy as well.  This year I decided to try stuffing a butternut squash with white and wild rice, autumn herbs and peppers.  It was a big hit at the Thanksgiving table and is hearty enough to work as a vegetarian main dish in place of turkey or roast beef.  It can also be adapted very easily for vegan diners.
