Step 1

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. rub the edge of the squash that will be touch- ing the baking sheet, with coconut oil. Place squash cut-side down on baking sheet or oven-safe glass dish and bake for about 35 minutes, until soft.

Step 2

While squash is baking, put meat, garlic, onions, turmeric, ginger, rosemary, salt, and pepper in a large mixing bowl. Using your hands, mash ingredients together to incorporate spices into meat. Form into 12 medium meatballs or 24 small meatballs.

Step 3

Heat coconut oil in large sauté pan over medium-high heat. Add meatballs and cook for about 5 minutes, flipping to brown all sides. Add broth or water and cook covered over medium heat for another 3 to 5 minutes, until cooked through.

Step 4

When squash is soft to touch with an oven mitt, remove from the oven and let cool, turning cut-side up with tongs or oven mitt. When cooled enough, scoop out squash with a spoon and divide among serving plates. If you are not using all right away, store in a covered glass container (see resources on page 359) in the refrigerator. Top squash with meatballs and dollops of pesto.
