Spaghetti Squash Au Gratin image

This recipe is quick to prepare and a great alternative for a lower-carbohydrate, lower-calorie option in place of a potato side dish. My husband is a meat-and-potatoes kind of guy and even he loved this recipe.

Time 45m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 spaghetti squash, halved and seeded
3 tablespoons light margarine
1 small yellow onion, thinly sliced
1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
¼ teaspoon garlic powder
salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
¾ cup fat-free sour cream
1 cup shredded light Cheddar cheese
cooking spray

Steps:

  • Place spaghetti squash in a covered dish and add 1/4 inch of water. Microwave for 10 to 12 minutes. Scrape insides of squash with a fork and transfer to a small bowl.
  • Heat margarine in a medium skillet over medium heat while spaghetti squash is cooking and cook onion, red pepper flakes, garlic powder, salt, and pepper until the onion is browned, 5 to 10 minutes.
  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease a baking dish with nonstick cooking spray.
  • Mix spaghetti squash, onion mixture, sour cream, and 1/2 of the Cheddar cheese together. Transfer to the prepared baking dish and top with remaining Cheddar cheese.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 20 to 25 minutes. Turn on broiler for the last 2 to 3 minutes and broil until gratin is golden brown on top.
