Lasagna-Style Baked Spaghetti Squash
Ingredients
  • 1 spaghetti squash, halved lengthwise and seeded
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 2 tablespoons minced garlic
  • 2 (14 ounce) cans stewed tomatoes
  • 1 tablespoon dried basil
  • 1 cube vegetable bouillon
  • black pepper to taste
  • 1 (15 ounce) can black olives, chopped
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1 cup shredded Parmesan cheese
Instructions
1
Preheat your oven to the desired temperature of 325 degrees Fahrenheit (165 degrees Celsius).
2
Next, spray a baking sheet with a light coating of cooking spray and position the squash halves cut-side down on the prepared surface.
3
Proceed to bake the squash in the preheated oven until it reaches a tender state, where a knife can be inserted with minimal resistance, approximately 35 minutes.
4
Once the squash is cooked, remove it from the oven and allow it to cool down.
5
Subsequently, grease a non-stick saucepan with cooking spray and place it over medium heat.
6
Sauté the onion and garlic in the saucepan until they turn golden brown, then stir in tomatoes, basil, a bouillon cube, and black pepper.
7
Continue to cook the mixture in the saucepan until it thickens, taking around 15 minutes.
8
Using a fork, carefully remove the squash strands from their shells and set them aside for later use.
9
Layer each half of the squash with a spoonful of sauce, followed by a layer of spaghetti squash strands, olives, and mozzarella cheese.
10
Repeat the layers until the shells are full or all ingredients have been utilized, at which point you can stop adding more components.
11
Top the final layer with a generous helping of Parmesan cheese.
12
Finally, return the assembled squash to the preheated oven and bake until the Parmesan cheese has melted and reached a suitable consistency, approximately 20 minutes.
