Caramelized Onion Spaghetti Squash Casserole Recipe 395

Steps:

• 1. Preheat the oven to 400°F and grease an 8x8 casserole dish with olive oil. 2. Cut the spaghetti squash in half lengthwise, scoop out the seeds and place the squash cut-side down on a baking sheet. Bake for 45 minutes, until the skin of the squash is fork tender. 3. While the squash is baking, prepare the caramelized onions and mushrooms. Heat the olive oil in a frying pan over medium-high heat, then add the onions and mushrooms. Lower the temperature to medium and cook the onions and mushrooms until beginning to brown, stirring occasionally to prevent burning, for around 10 minutes. Add the water to the pan and stir the onions and mushrooms to pick up the brown bits in the bottom of the pan. Cook the onions and mushrooms for 8-10 minutes, until there is no more water in the pan. 4. Remove the squash from the oven, scoop out the flesh and place it in the casserole dish. Stir in the caramelized mushrooms,onions, tomato sauce and garlic powder. Add the whisked eggs to the baking dish and mix everything together until you can no longer see the eggs. 5. Bake uncovered for 1 hour in the oven, until the top of the casserole has formed a crust that looks like cheese and is brown around the edges. Let rest for 10 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400˚F (200°C). Grease a 9 x 13-inch baking dish with nonstick spray.
• On a cutting board, cut the spaghetti squash in half lengthwise. Scoop out the seeds and discard. Drizzle 1 tablespoon of olive oil over the cut sides of the squash, then transfer to a rimmed baking sheet, cut side-down.
• Bake the squash until fork-tender, about 1 hour. Let the spaghetti squash cool for 5 minutes, then use a fork to pull the strands of spaghetti squash and transfer to a medium bowl.
• In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat the remaining tablespoon of olive oil over medium-high heat. Once the oil begins to shimmer, add the onion and cook until softened and light golden, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and red pepper flakes and cook, stirring constantly, until aromatic, about 1 minute.
• Add the ground beef and cook, breaking up the meat with a wooden spoon, until browned and cooked through, about 5 minutes. Add the tomato paste and cook, stirring often, until combined, about 1 minute.
• Add the diced tomatoes, salt, and pepper, and stir to combine. Bring to a simmer, cover, and cook for 5 minutes. Stir in the spaghetti squash until well combined.
• Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish and spread in an even layer. Sprinkle the cheese over the casserole.
• Bake until the cheese is melted and golden brown, about 20 minutes. Remove from the oven and let the casserole cool for 5 minutes.
• Top with the basil, then serve.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Place squash in baking pan; pour in enough boiling water to come 1/2-inch up the sides of dish.
• Bake in the preheated oven until squash is tender, 40 to 45 minutes. Remove from oven; cool until easily handled, 7 to 10 minutes.
• Reduce oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Scoop out squash; separate strands with a fork. Reserve shells.
• Cook beef, onion, and bell pepper in a skillet over medium heat until the meat is no longer pink, about 5 minutes; drain. Stir in garlic, basil, oregano, salt, and pepper; cook and stir until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Add tomatoes and cook until warmed through, about 2 minutes. Stir in squash; cook until liquid has evaporated, about 10 minutes.
• Fill squash shells with squash mixture using a slotted spoon; place in a shallow baking pan.
• Bake in the preheated oven until flavors combine, about 15 minutes. Sprinkle with Cheddar cheese; bake until cheese is melted, about 5 minutes.

Steps:

• Cut the squash in half and carefully remove the seeds. Turn upside down in a baking pan. Bake at 375-degrees for about 45 minutes.
• Cool for 10 minutes, then using a fork, scrape out squash into serving bowl.
• While squash is cooling, cut bacon with scissors into 1 inch pieces. Cook bacon to half done. Drain off most of bacon grease.
• Add onions and garic to bacon in pan. Cook together until bacon crisps and onions caramelize, about 5 minutes.
• Pour bacon/onion mixture over squash. Season with salt, pepper and parmesan cheese.

Steps:

• Heat oil and butter in a large heavy pot or Dutch oven over medium until butter is melted. Add onions and garlic and cook, stirring occasionally, until very tender and deeply golden brown, about 30 minutes. (Stop before the onions become dry and shriveled.) Add red pepper flakes (if using) and 1 1/2 tsp. salt. Remove pot from heat.
• Meanwhile, cook pasta in a large pot of boiling salted water, stirring occasionally, until al dente. Reserve 1 1/2 cups pasta cooking liquid.
• Add pasta and 1 cup pasta cooking liquid to onion mixture and stir to combine. Add a small handful of cheese and stir until melted. Repeat with remaining cheese, adding more pasta cooking liquid as needed to create a glossy sauce that coats the pasta. Stir in parsley (if using).
• Divide pasta among bowls. Top with Parmesan, parsley, and a few cranks of pepper.
