Ingredients
4 servings
- •1 (3 pound) spaghetti squash, halved lengthwise and seeded
- •2 tablespoons olive oil
- •2 medium green bell peppers, chopped
- •1 medium onion, sliced
- •1 medium zucchini, chopped
- •1 medium carrot, or more to taste, diced
- •1 clove garlic, minced
- •1.5 cups water
- •1 tablespoon dried parsley flakes
- •salt and ground black pepper to taste
- •1 (28 ounce) jar spaghetti sauce
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Place squash halves, cut-sides down, in a baking dish. Add about 1/2 inch water to the dish.
- Bake in the preheated oven until tender when pierced in the middle with a knife, about 30 minutes.
- While the squash is baking, heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add bell peppers, onion, zucchini, and carrot; saute until beginning to soften, about 5 minutes. The zucchini will add water to the pan; that's okay, it will cook out. Add garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add parsley flakes, salt, and pepper. Remove from the heat.
- At the same time, heat spaghetti sauce in a saucepan over medium heat until warm.
- Remove squash from the oven and let cool slightly. When you can handle it, use a fork to remove the strands of flesh; place in a large bowl.
- Add sauteed vegetables to the spaghetti squash and toss to combine. Mix in spaghetti sauce and serve.
