Ingredients

  • 1 medium sized spaghetti squash
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • Pinch of salt
  • 1 small onion, finely diced
  • 1 clove of garlic, minced
  • 1 tsp dry oregano
  • 1 tsp basil
  • 1 cup 10% Cream
  • 1 tbsp flour
  • salt
  • pepper
  • 2 cups mozzarella cheese, grated

Preparation

Step 1

To start, pre-heat your oven to 375°F.

Prepare the squash by cutting it in half, lengthwise and scrape out the seeds. Brush with olive oil, and season with salt. Then, bake on a foil-lined cookie sheet, rind side up, for 40 minutes. Remove from oven, and using a fork separate the strands of spaghetti. Now scoop out spaghetti strands, and set aside both the strands and hulled out squash for later.

In a large skillet, heat up the remaining olive oil over medium heat. Cook onions and garlic for 4 minutes, until translucent. Then, add spaghetti squash, herbs, seasoning, and cream. Stir in flour, and cook for an additional 4 minutes until creamy, constantly stirring. Add salt and pepper to taste.

Finally, return spaghetti mixture to the hulled out squash, sprinkle with cheese, and bake at 450°F for 5 minutes until cheese melts. Remove from oven and serve!
