Baked Spaghetti Squash with Turkey Sausage
- 1 whole Spaghetti Squash
- 1 pound Hot Italian Turkey Sausage
- 2 Tablespoons Butter
- 3 Tablespoons Flour
- 2 cups Low Fat Milk
- 13 cups Grated Parmesan Cheese
- 1 cup Shredded Mozzarella Cheese
- Puncture skin of the spaghetti squash with a fork several times and cook in microwave fo 10-12 minutes.
- Let sit in microwave for 5 minutes after cooking to let it steam some more.
- Meanwhile remove sausage from casings and brown over medium to medium high heat on stove top.
- Break sausage up with the side or back of a spoon, stirring occasionally until sausage is cooked through and no longer pink.
- Set sausage aside in a medium to large bowl (youll be scraping the squash into here so make sure its decent sized).
- Once squash is cool enough to handle, cut it in half and scrape out squash with spoon.
- It should come out easily and look like spaghetti strands.
- Add the spaghetti squash to the bowl with the sausage.
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
- In the same pan you used to brown the sausage, melt butter over medium high heat.
- Once melted, whisk in flour.
- Once flour is whisked in (it should only take a couple minutes) slowly whisk in milk.
- Continue whisking until mixture thickens, it should only take a few minutes, but you need to whisk continuously so it doesnt burn on the bottom of the pan.
- Remove pan from heat, stir in parmesan cheese, and then stir in sausage and spaghetti squash.
- Pour or spoon all of this into a 2 quart baking dish, sprinkle with mozzarella cheese and cook in the preheated oven for 25 to 30 minutes until cheese is brown and bubbling on top.
