Baked at 350 for 30 minutes covered and 30 minutes uncovered. This was absolutely delicious.

Excellent. I added some spinach

Not sure I would make it again, but if I did I would precook the squash. I think the bulgar was overcooked.

Delicious but the bulgar came out crunchy/chewy! I would soak the bulgar for 1-2 hours next time if I made it again.

We liked this a lot! I doubled the stuffing ingredients and was glad I did. The 4 cavities were filled just right. Also added some sautéed chard. Yum!
