Step-by-Step Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Clean the portobello mushrooms by wiping them down, removing stems, and scooping out the gills. Brush with olive oil and season with salt and pepper.
- Cook quinoa in a medium saucepan with vegetable broth or water for about 15 minutes until fluffy.
- Sauté diced butternut squash in olive oil for 8-10 minutes until tender, then add minced garlic and thyme.
- In a mixing bowl, combine cooked quinoa, sautéed squash, cranberries, and walnuts. Mix well and adjust seasoning.
- Stuff the quinoa mixture into each portobello mushroom and top with grated parmesan cheese.
- Bake the stuffed mushrooms in the oven for 20-25 minutes until tender and cheese is melted.
- Remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly before serving warm.

Notes
Choose large, firm portobello mushrooms. Quinoa should remain fluffy; season generously for best flavor. Consider nutritional yeast for a vegan alternative.
