Intro

Spaghetti Squash Bake is a recipe I developed because I had a plethora of Spaghetti Squash and some really good Italian Sausage from Butcher Box!  I recommend Butcher Box to anyone who asks me.  The Meat is high quality and I get a box every other month.  I usually do a few additions to the box or I’ll go in on some of their member deals.  How I got the Italian Sausage was a member deal and hence this recipe.

The Spaghetti Squash I was introduced to by my Sister in law several years ago and it is great!  I started to grow them in my garden a few years back.  This year I had so many and I was finding creative ways like this recipe to use them.  I’ll also make this Salmon Recipe and put it over Spaghetti Squash sometimes.  Anyway, Spaghetti Squash Bake is a great recipe that is easy and is also good reheated later if you don’t eat it all in one sitting!

  • 1 TBS of Italian Seasoning

  3. Place them on a sheet pan and lightly oil and season the Squash with Salt and Pepper.  Then flip then cut side down.
  4. Place it in the oven for 40 minutes.

  6. Once the Italian Sausage is cooked slice them into little circle pieces and set to the side.
