Spaghetti Squash Casserole

By: Addie Gundry, Cookbook Author and Food Network Star

This Spaghetti Squash Casserole is healthy, but it does not sacrifice any flavor! Spaghetti squash is a great, low-carb alternative to many kinds of pasta and noodles, and it's delicious, too. This recipe combines this spectacular fall squash with sour cream, cheese, and a special blend of herbs and spices that makes this dish come alive with flavor. Because this dish is completely meat free, it's great to serve for meatless Mondays! Give this recipe a try, and you'll be coming back to it again and again.

From the Chef: When I don't feel like prepping for multi-course meals every day, I'll make a veggie casserole, like this one, at the beginning of the week and just reheat portions to serve on the side over the next few days. That way, I get a homemade meal without having to worry about the nitty gritty.

I love spaghetti squash so so much! I think it's a great idea to prep this in the beginning of the week and use it as a side dish throughout the week. This looks so simple healthy!

Zucchini, summer squash, and spaghetti squash are all fabulous low carb swap outs for pasta. I find that the best ways to prepare them are to treat them as if they were just that. If you like creamy pasta dishes, this recipe is great! I would even top the whole thing with freshly grated parmesan cheese just before serving.

I adore spaghetti squash. It's amazingly versatile, and I use it in lieu of pasta noodles all of the time. This'll be the first time trying it in a casserole!
