Ingredients
2 Capital Ham Sausage (Sliced)
1 Spaghetti Squash - large
4 tbsp Olive Oil
0.5 cup Onion (Finely chopped)
4 Garlic Cloves (Minced)
0.25 cup Butter (Cubed)
1 cup Parmesan Cheese (Finely grated)
Salt (To taste)
Pepper (To taste)
Directions
- Heat oven to 425ºf.
- Carefully cut the spaghetti squash lengthwise. Scoop out the seed and discard. Brush each half of the squash with 1 tbsp. of olive oil. Place squash in a bake sheet/dish, skin side down, and place in the oven on the middle rack. Bake for about one hour and 15 minutes.
- While the squash is baking, heat the oil in a frying pan on medium heat. Add the sausage. Fry for 7-10 minutes, until golden brown. Add the onion and cook for another 5 minutes, until the onions are translucent. Add the garlic and cook until fragrant. About 2 minutes. Remove pan from heat.
- Remove squash from the oven and allow to cool for 10-15 minutes. When cool enough to handle scoop out the strands with a fork into a large serving bowl. Add the butter and mix until melted. Next, add the Ham Sausage mixture and toss until well combined. Mix in the parmesan cheese and salt and pepper to taste. Serve immediately.
