Delicata squash is one of the easiest squashes to work with — no peeling required, and the skin gets tender when roasted.
Stuffing it with quinoa, mushrooms, and cranberries turns each half into a ready-to-serve side that looks impressive but is simple to make.
It’s festive, filling, and feels special.
