This is one of my favorite go to recipes when the family is craving some Italian (and I don't have to feel guilty after having a plate or two).
Ingredients:
-Spaghetti Squash 1 Large or 2 Medium (a medium squash is around 3lbs)
-Jar of your favorite Spaghetti Sauce (we love Classico Sauces over here)
-Our grocery store butcher makes "ready to bake" meatballs fresh or you can make your own following the recipe below.
Meatballs
- 1lb ground beef (you can also use ground turkey)
- 1⁄2-2⁄3cup dry breadcrumbs
- 1⁄4cup milk
- 1⁄4teaspoon salt (optional)
- 1⁄2teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1small onion, chopped
- 1egg
Squash
- Cut your squash lengthwise and scoop out the membranes and seeds. -Place the halves cut side down in a baking dish and fill with just a little water (about an inch)
-Bake in the oven at 400 degrees for 35-45 minutes
Meatballs
-Once the squash is done remove from the water and take a fork to gently scrape. The flesh will separate easily into spaghetti like strands.
- After baking your meatballs remove and add them plus your sauce to the bowl of spaghetti. Mix it all together, top with parmesan cheese and enjoy!
