Two of our fall and winter favorites are brussels sprouts and delicata squash, and our stuffed delicata squash is the perfect combo for these ingredients. When these two veggies are in season we make it a point to have them regularly for some of our favorite and most frequently made meals. For example, the delicata squash is perfect for our pear and squash chicken skillet and brussels sprouts are a key ingredient in our chicken skillet with bacon brussels sprouts.

For this dish, we wanted to do an easy dinner featuring these two veggies. Oh, and we decided to add in some bacon and sausage for good measure. Duh, that makes total sense! You were probably already going there anyhow!

It’s a healthy meal that can easily be added to your work-week rotation since it’s ready in about 35 minutes. Just throw the squash in the oven to bake, and while it is cooking you can get the bacon, sausage and brussels stuffing ready on the stove. Once the squash is ready, just fill it up and dig in!
