INSTRUCTIONS

Preheat oven to 400 degrees.

Add butter to a skillet over medium heat. Once melted add onions and a pinch of salt. Reduce heat to medium low and cook onions for 40-50 minutes, stirring occasionaly.

While onions are cooking, cook your squash. Coat the inside of the squash in oil, salt and pepper. Add to a sheet pan lined with parchment paper face down. Cook for 35-50 minutes. The squash should be browned and the inside should be fork tender. Remove squash from oven and keep the oven on.

Once onions are caramelized, add garlic, beans, thyme, salt, pepper, and half of the cheese. Cook for 3 minutes.

Divide out filling and add to squash. Top with the remaining cheese. Pop the squash back in the oven until the cheese is melted.
