Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

Roast in the oven for about 30-40 minutes until tender.

Meanwhile, in a skillet over medium heat, cook the chopped bacon until crispy. Remove the bacon and set aside, leaving the grease in the pan.

Once the squash is done, fill each half with the spinach and cheese mixture. Top with the cooked bacon.
