Step 1
Preheat your oven to 200°C (392°F).

Step 2
Wash and dry the squash. Cut the top and tail so that the squashes can sit flat on a baking tray (see pictures/video). Cut each one in half and scoop out the middle, leaving enough flesh to hold the filling.

Step 3
Brush the backs of the squash halves with olive oil. Sprinkle insides with salt and pepper.

Step 4
Spoon the cream cheese mixture into each squash half, about 1 teaspoon. Press firmly into the squash. Top each stuffed squash with a little Mozzarella.

Step 5
Place the stuffed squash halves on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake in the preheated oven for 13-15 minutes, or until the cheese is golden brown and bubbly.

Step 6
Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving. These are great warm and cold!
