I picked up a Spaghetti Squash at the market thinking it was time to try a new veggie. My husband thought I was nuts. It was really yummy! Reminded me of mac and cheese, but much simpler to make and maybe better for you (if you don't count the cheese and sour cream. Read more ...). My husband was a little iffy about the squash, but he ate almost all of it!. Ingredients:
1 2lb spaghetti squash |
8 oz + 3 oz reserved shredded swiss cheese |
8 oz shredded mozzarella cheese |
12 cup lite sour cream |
1 package diced ham cubs |
2 cups thinly sliced onion |
1/2 cup mushrooms |
1 t minced garlic |
1 cup crushed vegetable chips |
Directions:
1. Cut squash in half and microwave each half for 6 min on high. Let sit for about 5 min after cooking. Shred with a fork. When shredded squash has cooled enough to handle, put in a kitchen towel or cheese cloth and squeeze out as much liquid as you can.
2. While squash is cooking, saute onion and mushrooms until tinder. Add garlic toward the end (so it doesn't burn). Set a side to cool a little.
3. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease a 9x13 casserole dish with olive oil.
4. Mix the now drained squash with the mushrooms/onion/garlic mixture. Stir in the sour cream, then add the cheese. Mix well and spread evenly into the 9x13 baking dish. Bake for 25 min. Top with Veggie chips and 3oz reserved Swiss cheese. Broil until cheese browns and becomes crisp.
