Preparation
Step 1
Roast butternut squash until very tender. Remove half of the squash pieces. Mash this squash with the back of a fork. Set aside.
Roast the remaining squash until desired, I like mine crispy.
Big pot heat EVOO med high.
Add onion, carrots, celery and cook, stirring occasionally, until onion is starting to turn brown, 8 to 10 minutes.
Add minced garlic and oregano. Cook, stirring, for 1 additional minute.
Then add tomatoes, mashed butternut squash. Stir to combine.
Stir in broth and quinoa. Bring to a simmer, cover and cook until the quinoa turns translucent, about 15 minutes.
Stir the olives, butternut squash pieces,and pepper into the stew and simmer, uncovered, to heat, about 5 minutes.
Stir in parsley and parm and serve.
