Indulge in a cozy and creamy Healthy Spaghetti Squash Au Gratin that is both satisfying and nutritious. With the richness of sharp cheddar cheese and the lightness of Greek yogurt, this dish is a delightful twist on a classic comfort food.

Ingredients

Scale

Ingredients:

  • 1 medium spaghetti squash
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • ½ cup diced onion
  • 2 cloves garlic (minced)
  • ½ cup plain Greek yogurt (or sour cream)
  • 1½ cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese (divided)
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • ¼ tsp black pepper
  • Optional: ¼ tsp paprika or dried thyme

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat oven to 400°F (205°C). Slice spaghetti squash in half lengthwise and scoop out seeds.
  2. Roast Squash: Brush cut sides with olive oil and place face-down on a baking sheet. Roast for 35–40 minutes or until tender.
  3. Sauté Onions: Heat a skillet over medium heat. Sauté onions in a bit of olive oil until softened (about 5 minutes). Add garlic and cook for 1 more minute. Remove from heat.
  4. Prepare Mixture: Once squash is cool enough to handle, use a fork to shred it into noodle-like strands. In a large bowl, mix shredded squash with sautéed onions and garlic, Greek yogurt, 1 cup of cheese, salt, pepper, and optional paprika or thyme.
  5. Bake: Transfer mixture to a greased casserole dish. Top with remaining ½ cup of cheese. Bake at 375°F for 20–25 minutes, until hot and bubbly with a golden top.
  6. Serve: Let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy as a side dish or light main!
