Pierce the squash in several places with a small knife, set it on a baking sheet, and bake for 1 to 1 1/4 hours or until you can pierce it easily with a fork. Meanwhile, heat the olive oil in a medium-sized saucepan over moderate heat for 1 minute. Add the onion and cook, uncovered, until soft - about 5 minutes. Add the mushrooms and wine and cook, covered, for 3 minutes. Mix in the tomato sauce, tomatoes, garlic, basil, rosemary, thyme and pepper, and simmer, covered, and cook for another 3 minutes. Add carrots and simmer 3 minutes more. Mix in broccoli and cook another 3 minutes. Stir in the zucchini and cook for 2 minutes or until tender but crisp. When the squash is done, let it cool for 15 minutes, then halve it lengthwise and remove the seeds. Using a fork, scrape the flesh onto a platter. Warm up the vegetable mixture if necessary and spoon it over the squash. Sprinkle with the cheese, parsley and sunflower seeds. Serves 4. |
