This recipe is a great way to use up leftover Thanksgiving turkey. Just substitute the sausage for the turkey.

I made this recipe in my Instant Pot and it turned out perfect. I just cooked the sausage and stuffing on the sauté setting, then added the squash and water and cooked on high pressure for 15 minutes.

I'm on a low-carb diet, so I used spaghetti squash instead of butternut squash. It was still delicious!

I'm a vegetarian, so I substituted the sausage for a vegetarian sausage. It turned out just as good!

This recipe is a keeper! The sausage and apple stuffing was flavorful and moist, and the squash was cooked to perfection. I will definitely be making this again.
