Method

Cut you butter nut squash , de seed. Pre heat the oven on 180 degrees. Brush the butter nut squash with olive oil and fresh pepper. Bake in the oven for 40 minutes.

I din't use a whole butter nut squash as it was too big. I saved the top bit for another time. I'm sure I will find a way to use it. 

In the meantime. Ad some hot water to the rice and crumble in the chicken stock. 

Fry the bacon until nice and crisp and set aside.

Prepare the crushed garlic , spring onion and parsley to use as soon as the rice is ready. 

When the rice is ready mix it with everything else , the bacon, onion , garlic and parsley

Get the squash out of the oven and fill with your mixture, crumble some feta cheese on top and return in the oven for another 10 minutes.
