Yield: Serves 2

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 spaghetti squash
  • 1–2 tablespoons olive oil
  • Sea salt and black pepper to taste
  • 1/2 cup + 2 tablespoons cottage cheese (or use ricotta cheese)
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

  • 1/4 cup freshly grated parmesan cheese
  • 2/3 cup marinara sauce

Instructions

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