Preheat the oven to 200°C (400°F) with upper and lower heat. Wash the squashes, cut them lengthwise in half, scoop out the thick end leaving about 1 cm from the edge, place them cut side up on a parchment-lined baking sheet, season with salt and pepper, drizzle with olive oil, and roast in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes.

Meanwhile wash the tomatoes, remove the stems, and halve them. Wash the basil, shake dry, pluck the leaves, and finely chop. Crumble the feta with a fork, mix it with breadcrumbs, cream, and basil, season with salt, pepper, and nutmeg, then fold in the tomatoes.
