Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 1 ounce 28.35 g freshly grated Parmesan, divided
  • 4 ounces 113.4 g mozzarella, grated
  • 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
  • 1 medium spaghetti squash approximately 3 pounds
  • 4 ounces 113.4 g white cheddar, grated
  • 2 large eggs
  • 3/4 teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh basil
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • 4 garlic cloves minced
  • 1/2 cup 115 g sour cream

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 375ºF and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Slice the spaghetti squash in half crosswise, remove the seeds, and lay the halves cut-side down on the prepared sheet. Roast for 45 to 60 minutes, or until the flesh yields slightly when squeezed.
  • Allow the squash to cool briefly, then scoop the flesh into a large bowl and stir in the butter until melted.
  • Lower the oven temperature to 350ºF and lightly grease a 2-quart casserole dish.
  • Incorporate the sour cream, minced garlic, Italian seasoning, salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes into the squash mixture. Stir until evenly blended.
  • Mix in the eggs, shredded cheddar, and half the Parmesan until fully incorporated.
  • Transfer the mixture into the prepared casserole dish and sprinkle the surface with mozzarella and the remaining Parmesan.
  • Bake for 30 to 35 minutes, or until the top is bubbling and golden brown.
  • Let rest for several minutes before serving. Garnish with extra basil if desired.
