Ingredients
- 1 large spaghetti squash (approx 4 pounds)
- 1 tsp olive oil
- 1 onion – diced
- 2 cloves garlic – minced
- 1 pound ground Italian Sausage
- 1 ½ teaspoons salt, divided
- 1 (530ml) Authentica Arrabiata Sauce
- 1 500g ricotta cheese
- ¼ cup parsley, chopped
- 1 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella
- ½ cup of grated parmesan cheese
- Chopped parsley to garnish
Directions
- Preheat oven to 400°F.
- Cut squash in half lengthwise and scoop out the seeds. Drizzle with Olive Oil inside and out, and lay them cut-side down in a roasting pan. Roast for 45-60 minutes or until soft when poked with a fork.
- Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Stir in onions and garlic and cook until translucent.
- Add ground Italian Sausage and cook well. Stir in Authentica Arrabiata Sauce and bring to a simmer. Season with S&P to taste. Continue simmering until the squashes are ready.
- Once the squash is cooked and cooled. Use a fork to shred the inside of the squash, leaving about a half-inch of squash left in the shell. Mix the shredded squash into Authentica Arrabiata Sauce & meat sauce and set aside.
- In a separate bowl, mix together the ricotta cheese, parsley, and add a pinch of salt.
- In the same roasting pan, flip the squash shells (cut side up). Use a spoon and spread the ricotta mixture evenly over the bottom of each shell, then spoon the meat-squash mixture on top of the ricotta.
- Bake shells for 15 minutes at 400°F.
- Remove the squash and sprinkle the shredded mozzarella and grated Parmesan cheese over the tops of the squashes and bake for another 15-20 minutes or until the cheese is golden brown.
- Garnish with parsley.
- Cool for 5 mins before serving.
