1 egg white
1 T. honey
1/2 banana
1/3 c. peanut butter
1/4 c. flour
1/4 c. oats
1/4 t. baking powder
1/3 c. water

Sausage Stuffed Squash!

2 acorn squash
1 T. olive oil
1/2 t. salt
1/2 t. black pepper
1 t. rosemary
1 lb. turkey sausage
1 onion, diced
8 oz. button mushrooms, chopped
1 apple, cored and diced
1/3 c. yogurt
1/4 c. Parmesan cheese

Cut each squash in half and scoop out the seeds and pulp.  Brush the cut side with olive oil and season with salt and pepper.  Place cut side down on a baking sheet and bake for 20 minutes at 400 degrees or until tender.  While the squash is roasting, saute the sausage in a large pan with the rosemary, onion, and mushrooms. When the sausage is fully cooked, stir in the apples and cook for 5 minutes more.  Take off the heat and stir in the yogurt and Parmesan.  Fill the squash halves with the sausage mixture and sprinkle more Parmesan on top.  Return the squash to the open and bake for 15 more minutes or until browned.
