Bacon-Parmesan Spaghetti Squash
From: Brandie Valenzuela @ homecookingmemories.com/
If your squash was large or smaller than the size I use (which was about 4 1/2 pounds), please feel free to increase or decrease the amount of cheese, butter…or heck — even the bacon. This is an easy side dish that you can adapt to your personal preference. Do what works for you.
Ingredients
1 pounds large spaghetti squash about 4 1/2
1 pound bacon
1/4 cup butter cut into pieces (1 cube - 8 tablespoons)
1 cup shredded Parmesan cheese
Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Carefully cut stem end off of the spaghetti squash and discard.
Cut squash into approximate 1" rings, width-wise.
With a spoon or tip of a knife, gently remove seeds and pulp from each ring; discard.
Place spaghetti squash rings laying down on prepared baking sheet.
Bake in oven for about 40-45 minutes or until strands separate easily when scraped with a fork.
While the spaghetti squash is baking, cut your bacon into pieces and cook in a large skillet over medium heat, moving and turning frequently, until bacon is fully cooked and crispy.
With a slotted spoon, remove bacon pieces from skillet and set aside.
Remove the spaghetti squash from the oven and allow to cool slightly.
Remove shells of each ring and separate stands with a fork.
Place strands in a large bowl.
Add butter to your warm spaghetti squash (if your strands have cooled too much, heat in the microwave a bit) and toss with the strands until the butter is fully melted and incorporated.
Stir in Parmesan cheese and bacon crumbles.
Season with salt and pepper and serve.
Recipe Notes
--Due to variances in size of the spaghetti squashes and the amount of strands you get from your squash, please feel free to adjust the measurement of the ingredients to your personal taste.
