Ingredients

The following ingredients have 2 Servings
  • 1 medium spaghetti squash
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil (divided)
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 8 ounces chorizo (casings removed)
  • 1/2 bell pepper (diced)
  • 1 small onion (diced)
  • 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

Instruction

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit. 
  • Carefully slice spaghetti squash in half lengthwise. Scrape out seeds with a spoon. Drizzle both halves with 1 tablespoon of the olive oil, then season with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. 
  • Place squash cut side down on a baking sheet and roast for 30-40 minutes, or until insides easily pull away with a fork. Baking time will depend on size of spaghetti squash. Remove from oven and allow to cool slightly. 
  • Using a fork, pull spaghetti squash flesh into loose "noodles", being careful to keep the outer skin intact (this will be your bowl). 
  • Meanwhile, in a saute pan over medium heat, add 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Crumble chorizo into pan. Add diced bell pepper and onions. Saute until meat and is browned and cooked through, and vegetables are tender. 
  • Spoon half of chorizo mixture onto each spaghetti squash bowl. Sprinkle with mozzarella cheese and enjoy. 
  • Optionally, place spaghetti squash under your oven broiler for 2-3 minutes or until cheese has melted and browned slightly.
