Recipe created by ah.mi

 
 

Makes 4 servings

 
 

To Get:

  • 1 spaghetti squash 

  • 2 Tbsp EVOO

  • Salt and pepper to taste

  • 24 oz jar marinara sauce (we love Rao’s Arrabiata if you like spicy)

  • Basil

  • 1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese

  • 3 Tbsp of Ricotta (for dairy-free, try Kite Kill Ricotta)

  • 1 cup sliced mushrooms

  • 2 handfuls of chopped kale

  • Chopped Zucchini

To Do: 

  1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees

  2. Cut spaghetti squash in half (long ways) and scoop out seeds

  3. Drizzle EVOO, a little salt, and black pepper

  4. Place cut side down and bake at 375 degrees for around 45 min (until you can stick a fork in the skin and it’s soft)

  5. Once squash is done, let it sit for 10-15 min

  6. Use a fork to get the spag squash out

  7. Top with a few spoonfuls of sauce, add basil and a little parmesan, and voila!

For the Creamy Vodka Sauce:

  1. Chop all veggies

  2. While spag squash is baking, saute all the veggies in EVOO

  3. Once veggies are cooked/soft add in tomato sauce

  4. Then add in ricotta and stir together until sauce gets creamy

  5. Let sauce simmer while squash bakes

 
 

ah.mi tips:

  • Ask your grocer to pre-cut the squash (they are such a pain to cut)

  • Add in veggies you have on hand for the sauce, broccoli is really delish in it!

  • Make a big batch for a delish Sunday sauce for a family or friends Sunday night dinner :)
