Time 25m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 (3 pound) spaghetti squash, halved and seeded
1 tablespoon olive oil
½ cup onion, chopped
½ pound vegetarian ground beef
1 (15 ounce) jar tomato sauce
2 tablespoons peanut butter
1 tablespoon dried oregano
½ teaspoon sweet paprika
½ teaspoon ground thyme
½ teaspoon tomato paste

Steps:

  • Pierce spaghetti squash halves all over using a fork. Place in a microwave-safe dish and cook in a microwave oven until softened, about 10 minutes.

The spaghetti squash was a bit too watery for my liking. I would try roasting it for longer next time.
