- 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
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.
