Number Of Ingredients 9

1 medium spaghetti squash, halved and seeded
2 tablespoons olive oil, divided
¼ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon ground black pepper

1 red bell pepper, chopped
1 onion, chopped
½ cup pre-made basil pesto
¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. With a fork, pierce squash halves several times. Rub the inside of the halves with 1 tablespoon olive oil. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.

I found the spaghetti squash to be a bit too watery. Maybe I didn't cook it long enough.

This recipe was a bit too bland for my taste. I think it could have used more seasoning.

I used Italian sausage instead of smoked sausage and it was still delicious. I also added some mushrooms and zucchini to the skillet.
