Baked Cheesy Garlic Spaghetti Squash Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Drizzle olive oil over the cut side of the spaghetti squash. Season with salt and black pepper. Place cut-side down on a baking sheet. Place unpeeled garlic on a piece of aluminum foil. Drizzle with olive oil. Wrap aluminum foil around garlic, and place onto baking sheet next to the squash.
• Bake in the preheated oven until squash is tender and easily pierced with a fork, 40 to 45 minutes. Allow squash and garlic to rest until cool enough to handle. Leave the oven on.
• Peel garlic and squeeze cloves into a large bowl. Smash with a fork until smooth. Add 1 tablespoon olive oil, onion powder, basil, oregano, and parsley. Mix into a paste.
• Use a fork to scrape out spaghetti squash strands into the bowl, reserving the shells. Toss spaghetti squash strands with the garlic paste until thoroughly coated. Mix in spinach, 1/4 cup mozzarella cheese, and 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese; toss to combine. Season with salt and pepper.
• Fill each reserved spaghetti squash shell evenly with the filling. Sprinkle remaining mozzarella and Parmesan over the top. Return the filled shells to the baking sheet.
• Bake until cheeses melt, 7 to 10 minutes. Turn on broiler and broil until cheeses begin to brown and bubble, 3 to 5 minutes. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Place squash, cut-sides down, in a shallow baking dish. Fill the dish with about 1/2 inch of water.
• Microwave on high until tender, 10 to 15 minutes. Remove from the microwave and transfer squash to a cutting board to cool, about 5 minutes.
• Use a fork in an up-and-down motion to scrape out spaghetti-like strands of squash.
• Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add zucchini, mushrooms, and tomatoes and cook until soft, 5 to 7 minutes. Stir in spaghetti squash and season with garlic powder, thyme, pepper flakes, salt, and pepper. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese and cook until cheese has melted slightly, 2 to 3 minutes. Serve hot.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
• Cut spaghetti squash in half, lengthwise, and remove seeds. Place on foil lined baking sheet, cut side down, and bake for 35 minutes.
• Remove from oven, and allow to cool.
• Meanwhile, combine half and half, 1/2 cup parmesan cheese, and seasonings in a small bowl. Whisk to combine. Set aside.
• When spaghetti squash is cool enough to handle, use two forks to pull the squash strands from the skin. Place in a 2 quart casserole dish. Discard skins.
• Pour the cream mixture over the squash, and stir to combine.
• Top with 1/2 cup parmesan cheese.
• Place in oven, and bake 20-30 minutes. If the cheese does not brown and bubble, broil for 5-10 minutes.
• Serve hot, and enjoy!

Steps:

• Cut squash in half lengthwise.
• Remove and discard seeds (or keep them to plant for next year).
• Steam squash, cut side up for 10-15 minutes, or until softened.
• Pre heat oven to 400 degrees F.
• Remove squash from steamer and place on a baking sheet.
• With a fork, scrape the insides of the squash to form the spaghetti strands. (This will be very easy if your squash is cooked enough).
• Top each squash half with the remaining ingredients ending with the mozzarella (or whatever type you used) cheese on top to melt.
• Bake for 10-15 minutes or until cheese is all melted.
• Remove from oven and give it another quick stir to mix the cheese into the rest of the filling.
• *There is no need to remove the insides for serving. We just eat the squash right out of the shell!
