How to cook deliciously - Skinny Spaghetti Squash Alfredo

1. Stage

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

Place squash, cut-sides down, on a rimmed baking sheet and add water to surround squash.

3. Stage

Bake in the preheated oven until tender, about 60 minutes.

Gently scrape squash strands into the center of each half using a fork.

5. Stage

Melt butter in a small saucepan over medium-low heat. Add garlic to hot butter and cook 1 to 2 minutes. Whisk in flour and cook for another minute while stirring until no lumps remain, 1 to 2 minutes more. Whisk in milk heated through. Add cream cheese and stir until smooth.
