Spaghetti Squash Casserole

Last night I was craving some Alfredo sauce, but what is Alfredo sauce without the pasta. I decided to create my own version of the tasty pasta dish replacing the pasta for spaghetti squash. 

Here is what you'll need

1 medium spaghetti squash
1 LB of ground meat
1 jar of store bought Alfredo sauce (I use Bertolli's 2 carbs per serving)
1/2 C of chopped white one
Salt/Pepper
Olive Oil
Italian Seasoning
Shredded sharp cheddar cheese
Fresh grated Parmesan cheese (I bought bagged from Walmart)
Water
Ricotta Cheese (Optional)
Glass baking dish

Squash
  1. Preheat over to 350 Degrees
  2. Split squash in half and scoop out seeds and discard
  3. Salt and pepper cut half of squash, drizzle with olive oil, and place cut side down on cookie sheet
  4. Bake for 30 minutes until for tender
Sauce
  1. Cook ground beef and drain
  2. Sweat onions in ground beef
  3. Add salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning to taste
  4. Add 1/2 jar of Alfredo sauce
  5.  Stir in 1 cup of water
  6. Add 1/4 Parmesan cheese to sauce. 
Casserole

  1. Use a fork to remove cooked and cool squash from the rind
  2. Layer the bottom of baking dish with squash
  3. Add a layer of Alfredo beef sauce
  4. A layer of sharp cheddar cheese
  5. Repeat 
  6. Top of with a little Parmesan cheese
  7. Back at 375 Degrees for an additional 20 minutes
  8. Allow to cool a bit for easier serving. I topped mine with Ricotta and Enjoy!!!
