These Stuffed Spaghetti Squash Rings are one of our favorite vegetarian dinners that are still high in protein. This is recipe is gluten-free, you only need a sheet pan for making it and it comes together quickly for a weekday dinner recipe.

Yield: Serves 2

Instructions

Preheat oven to 450 degrees F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper
Cut the spaghetti squash into 4-6 rounds (will depend on size of squash) and remove seeds from center
Brush with olive oil, salt and pepper
Roast for 20 minutes, flipping halfway through
Mix together cottage cheese, basil, garlic powder, mozzarella cheese and parmesan cheese until combined
Use a fork to shred the strings a bit in the squash to form “nests”
Add sauce into each squash piece then add cheese mixture on top
Broil in oven for 1 minute or until cheese is bubbly
Serve while warm! I like adding a side salad or some veggies with it

Notes

*Store leftovers in fridge for 5 days. Reheat in microwave
