Directions
Filling
Step 1
Peel, slice, and cube your butternut squash. Add to a pot of salted boiling water. Boil until fork tender.
Step 2
Brown your ground beef. While it browns, begin chopping your veggies.
Step 3
Strain the squash when cooked, then add back to pot. Add all ingredients listed under mashed squash and mash together.
Step 4
When beef has browned add in all veggies and garlic. With heat on medium, allow veggies to soften—7-8 minutes. When they’ve softened add in flour and stir until flour dissolves.
Step 5
Add in your stock and Worcestershire sauce. Stir until combined. Bring to a simmer and allow to thicken. Preheat oven to 400°.
Step 6
Smooth out meat mixture. Top with mashed squash and use a spatula to smooth out. Place in oven for 30 minutes.
Step 7
Remove and let set up for 5-10 minutes. Serve and enjoy.
