  1. Cut ends off squash and cut in half, lengthwise. Scoop seeds out with a spoon and throw away. Place squash in a microwave-safe dish flesh-side up. Microwave 15 minutes, or until tender. Let cool. Score squash with a knife making small squares, without breaking skin. Scoop squash out and set aside.
  2. In a large saucepan add oil and heat over medium. Sauté mushrooms, onion and pepper mix and garlic powder 3-4 minutes, or until vegetables are tender, stirring occasionally.
  3. Add squash. Cook 2-3 minutes, or until squash is golden brown on edges.
  4. Add broth, oregano and pepper. Increase heat to medium-high and bring to a simmer, stirring occasionally.
  5. Stir in lentils. Cover and simmer 30-35 minutes, or until lentils are tender, stirring occasionally.
  6. Add rice. Cover and simmer 10 minutes, or until rice is tender.
