Golden roasted spaghetti squash halves are loaded with savory sausage, crisp-tender broccoli, and gooey cheddar cheese for a low-carb, satisfying dinner baked right in its shell.

Ingredients

Scale

For the Spaghetti Squash:

  • 2 medium spaghetti squash
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

For the Filling:

  • 1/2 pound Italian sausage, casings removed
  • 2 cups broccoli florets
  • 1/2 small onion, finely chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)
  • 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
  • 1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Cut the spaghetti squash in half lengthwise and scoop out the seeds.
  2. Roast Squash: Brush the inside of each half with olive oil, sprinkle with salt and pepper. Place cut side down on a baking sheet and roast for 35–40 minutes, until tender.
  3. Cook Filling: Cook sausage in a skillet over medium heat until browned, breaking it up with a spoon. Add onions, garlic, and broccoli. Sauté until broccoli is crisp-tender. Season with red pepper flakes and remove from heat.
  4. Assemble: Scrape and fluff the squash strands, leaving them in the shell. Divide sausage-broccoli mixture between squash halves. Top with cheddar.
  5. Bake: Return to the oven and bake for 10 minutes, or until cheese is melted and bubbly.
  6. Serve: Garnish with fresh thyme and serve hot.
