Quinoa and Squash Stuffed Chard

This weeks lineup:
Chard, patty squash and jalapeno.
Adapted from here.

1 bunch of chard
3-4 medium patty squash, diced
1 cup cooked quinoa
1lb hot pork sausage
1 medium shallot, diced
3 cloves of garlic, minced
3 vine ripe tomates, sliced thick
2 cups stock (I used beef - it was either that or chicken)
1/4 cup shredded parmigiano-reggiano
1 jalapeno pepper, diced
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp pepper
1/2 tsp ground rosemary
1/2 tsp oregano

Combine cooked quinoa, raw sausage, squash, shallot, garlic, parm, jalapeno and spices in a bowl. Scoop filling on to chard leaves, roll up and set into a baking tin. Top with tomato slices. Pour broth into the bottom of the pan. Cook at 375 for 45 minutes or so.

The results: Delicious. Definitely a keeper, and definitely good for a dinner party. Quick easy recipe - and I honestly didn't expect much from it. Yay for simple recipes!
