Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 large spaghetti squash
  • 1 pound spicy Italian sausage
  • 2 cups broccoli florets
  • 1 cup cheddar cheese, shredded
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Cut the spaghetti squash in half lengthwise and remove seeds. Drizzle with olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.
  3. Place squash cut side down on a baking sheet and bake for 30-40 minutes, or until tender.
  4. Meanwhile, in a skillet, cook the spicy Italian sausage over medium heat until browned. Add broccoli and cook until tender.
  5. Once the squash is cooked, scrape the inside with a fork to create spaghetti-like strands. Mix the strands with the sausage and broccoli mixture.
  6. Stuff the mixture back into the squash halves, top with cheddar cheese, and return to the oven for an additional 10 minutes, or until cheese is melted.
  7. Serve warm, garnished with extra cheese if desired.
