Spaghetti Squash with Summer Stuffing
Steve Petusevsky
Serves: 2
 
Spaghetti squash is a wonderful vegetable often overlooked. It won’t be anymore after being paired with delicate soy, garden fresh Summer vegetables and grated Parmesan cheese. Serve this as an entrée combined with a light green salad. You may keep this recipe Vegan by using soy Parmesan and Mozzarella in place of traditional dairy cheese.
This is also a great recipe for leftover cooked shrimp, chicken or vegetables.

Ingredients:
1 medium spaghetti squash, halved lengthwise and seeded
1/2 Tablespoon olive oil
½ medium red onion, chopped
1 small zucchini, chopped
½ red pepper, chopped
1 package Gimme Lean™ sausage flavor, crumbled
¼ cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
¼ cup minced parsley
8 fresh basil leaves, minced
sea salt and freshly grated pepper to taste

¼ cup shredded mozzarella or soy mozzarella
 
Instructions:
  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F.
  2. Cook squash by one of two methods: either place in a micro wave safe dish in ½ inch water and cook on high for 12-15 minutes until tender. Drain and scoop fresh with a spoon into a large mixing bowl. You may also steam squash over boiling water in a covered pot or steamer for 35-40 minutes until tender.
  3. Make the stuffing:  Heat the olive oil in a large sauté pan over medium heat. Add the onion, zucchini and red pepper, sauté for 2 minutes until softened. Add the Gimme Lean and combine well, continue to sauté for 2 minutes. Add the Parmesan cheese, parsley and basil. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
  4. Place the squash halves on a baking pan. Fill the squash halves with the Summer Stuffing and top with shredded cheese. Bake for 30 minutes until lightly browned.

TIP:   You may serve the squash with your favorite marinara sauce.
