Spicy Italian Stuffed Spaghetti Squash #Ragu - cooking recipe
Ingredients
-
1 cup Ragu(R) Pasta Sauce (spicy Italian sauce)
1 large spaghetti squash
1 lb Italian sausage
2 medium zucchini, chopped- about 3 cups
1 large yellow onion, diced-about 2 cups
4 garlic cloves, minced
3 tablespoons chopped oregano, 1tsp reserved (to garnish)
4 tablespoons butter
1 cup panko Italian seasoned breadcrumbs
4 ounces goat cheese
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon pepper
Preparation
-
Preheat Oven to 400.
Split clean, dry Spaghetti squash long ways and clean, removing all seeds. I like to use a large spoon for this.
Oil liberally with olive oil and salt and pepper to taste.
Place cut side down and roast 45-60 minutes until just tender enough to fluff with a fork. Time will vary depending on size of squash.
While squash is roasting, work on dicing vegetables and brown Italian sausage.
Once sausage is browned add in half of the butter and the entire onion. Cook until tender.
Add in garlic, zucchini, and Ragu Spicy Italian Sauce and simmer until all veggies are tender.
Season with chopped oregano, salt and pepper to taste.
Once roasted squash is tender, drag a fork from edge to edge just enough to loosen the flesh from the skin. Divide the Ragu ,mixture between the two halves. Sprinkle crumbled goat cheese evenly between the two pieces.
In a small bowl, melt remaining butter and add in bread crumbs. Sprinkle evenly on top of the two pieces or squash, careful to cover Ragu mixture.
Place back into oven and bake for 15 minutes or until the breadcrumbs are nicely golden brown.
Allow to cool 5 minutes. Serve and enjoy!
