- 2-3 sage leaves, whole or finely chopped
- 1 garlic cloves, crushed (optional)
- 1 teaspoon paprika (optional)

Directions
- Preheat your oven to 350º-375º

- Prepare the rice: Bring 1½ cups of salted water to a boil in a wide skillet and drop in the rice. Cook for 20 minutes over medium heat. You want the rice to be slightly undercooked, as it will finish cooking in the oven.
- Prepare the stuffing: In a wide non-stick pan, heat the olive oil over medium heat with the cranberries, sage and rosemary. If you wish to add garlic add it now. Mix well for about 2 minutes.
- Add the shredded turkey with a pinch of salt and the paprika if desired. Mix well.
- Add the rice and mix well to combine all of the ingredients, and then remove from the heat.
- Season with salt to taste.
- Stuff the hollowed squash, fasten with the squash cap and place them on a baking tray.
- Bake for 30-40 minutes.
- Enjoy warm with a drizzle of olive oil.
