Ingredients
Method
- Preheat oven to 400°F. Slice the spaghetti squash in half lengthwise, scoop out the seeds, drizzle with olive oil, and season with salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning.
- Pierce the skin 5–6 times, place cut-side down on a baking sheet, and roast for 35–40 minutes until tender.
- In a small baking dish, combine cherry tomatoes, olive oil, garlic, salt, pepper, Italian seasoning, and red pepper flakes.
- Place the Boursin cheese in the center and bake for 20 minutes, until the tomatoes burst and the cheese softens into a creamy sauce.
- Scrape the roasted squash into strands with a fork. Top with the tomato-Boursin mixture, add Parmesan, and toss until everything is creamy and well-coated.
- Top with basil, and a protein of your choice.
Notes
- Piercing the skin of the spaghetti squash helps it cook evenly and prevents it from bursting in the oven.
- For extra flavor, you can add more red pepper flakes or a drizzle of balsamic glaze before serving.
- If you want a vegetarian protein option, consider adding chickpeas or tofu.
