Equipment

  • oven
  • baking pan
  • fork
  • spoon
  • medium bowl

Ingredients
  

  • 1 medium spaghetti squash
  • pinch salt
  • pinch black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon minced onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 tablespoon Italian seasoning
  • ¾ cup plain Greek yogurt
  • ½ cup cheddar cheese
  • ½ cup mozzarella cheese
  • ¼ cup Parmesan cheese plus more for topping
  • 4 slices cooked bacon roughly chopped
  • parsley for garnish if desired

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Poke holes all over squash with a fork. Put squash into the oven for 4-6 minutes, or until slightly softened.
  • Cut squash in half lengthwise. With a spoon, scoop out seeds and discard it.
  • Drizzle olive oil over both halves of the squash and rub it all over. Sprinkle squash with salt and pepper.
  • Place squash on an aluminum foil wrapped pan and bake for 50-60 minutes, or until flesh is tender.
  • Remove squash from the oven, allow to slightly cool, until safe to handle. Put oven on broiler setting.
  • With a fork, scrape the flesh of the squash removing most of the inside leaving only a sturdy shell behind.
  • Place the spaghetti squash flesh into a medium bowl and add remaining ingredients. Mix well together. Divide the mixture into the center of both squash halves. Top with additional cheese and bacon.
  • Place squash into the oven and broil until cheese is melted and golden, about 2-4 minutes.
