- Place squash side down on a lined cookie sheet and bake for 1 hour.
- While that’s cooking, set your pressure cooker on the sauté setting.

- Add 1lb ground beef (I used wagyu), and 2lbs ground sausage (I used hot Italian) mix to combine until cooked through and cancel the sauté function.
- Add 1 cup (1/2 jar) of tomato sauce and 1 can diced tomatoes.
- Cover and cook for 35 minutes. Once everything is done, plate it up and devour!
Notes
For a crockpot version, make the squash as directed. Sauté the onion and meat in a pan, throw in the crockpot. Add the tomato sauce and diced tomatoes and cook on high for 3 hours.
