Instructions for Three Ps Squash

The dish gets its name from the ingredients: pepitas (pumpkin seeds), Parmesan cheese and (sweet) potatoes. Prepare it as a side dish for a turkey feast or serve it as the focal point of a vegetarian celebration. Slice off the bottom of each squash so it will sit up straight in a large baking pan. Cut off the top (the stem end) and set it aside for garnish. Scoop out the seeds of the squash, then steam squash over boiling water until soft. (Or microwave squash until soft, approximately 5 to 7 minutes per squash.) When squash has cooled, scoop out most of the soft pulp, leaving just enough to allow the squash to keep its form. Mix pulp with mashed sweet potato, salt, brown sugar, lemon juice, coriander and eggs. Spoon filing into squash shells. In a small bowl, toss Parmesan cheese with chopped pepita seeds to make the topping. Sprinkle cheese mixture over baked squash. Bake 20 minutes at 350?F.
