4 servings

  • 1 medium spaghetti squash (about 2 1/2 lb.), halved and seeded
  • 0.25 cup water
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 (14 ounce) package smoked sausage, bias-sliced into 1-inch pieces
  • 1 onion, coarsely chopped
  • 1 orange bell pepper, coarsely chopped
  • 1 (24 ounce) jar vodka sauce or creamy rosa pasta sauce
  • 8 ounces frozen broccoli florets (about 3 1/2 cups)
  • 1 tablespoon shaved Parmesan cheese, or to taste
  • 4 leaves fresh basil for garnish

Instructions

  • Put squash halves, cut sides down, in a microwave-safe dish. Add water and cover. Microwave on High until tender, about 12 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add sausage and cook until lightly browned, about 5 minutes. Transfer to a plate. Cook onion and bell pepper in the same skillet until just tender, 6 to 8 minutes.
  • Stir vodka sauce and broccoli into skillet. Bring to a simmer and cook, covered, until broccoli is crisp-tender, 3 to 4 minutes. Return sausage to skillet; stir to combine.
  • Carefully remove squash halves from dish. Using a fork, scrape squash strands into a serving dish. Top with sausage mixture. Garnish with Parmesan and basil.
