Spaghetti Squash Bake



Its Monday, time for another healthy Monday night dinner recipe :) Today I'm making a low carb recipe. Spaghetti Squash bake. I like this recipe because I already had all the ingredients (except for the squash) so I didn't have to go searching for some weird health food item. 

You'll need:

1 spaghetti squash
2 TBPS margarine
1 TSP Fresh thyme (I used dried, but everythings better fresh)
1 Small yellow onion
1/4 TSP Red pepper flakes (I like HOT AND SPICY so I put more)
1/2 Cup light sour cream
3/4 Cup Cheddar Cheese

1. Cut the squash in half, remove the seeds and place it face down on a dish filled with 1/4 Inch of water. Put it in the microwave for 10 - 12 minutes. You can also bake it for 45 mins if you have the time but microwaving works just fine.

2. In a skillet on medium heat add the onion, margarine, thyme, red pepper flakes. Stir occasionally until onion is browned slightly in color.

3. Scrape the insides of the squash into a large bowl. Add the sour cream, cheese and onion mixture. Mix until well combined.

4. Transfer the mixture into a baking dish and flatten out so its evenly spread. Springle some more cheddar cheese on top.

5. Bake for 15-20 minutes.

Enjoy :)
