How to cook deliciously - Spaghetti Squash Casserole with Pasta Sauce

1. Stage

Pierce squash a few times with a very sharp knife. Place squash in a microwave-safe bowl and microwave on high power until squash is tender and a knife can easily poke through the skin, 10 to 13 minutes. Let squash rest, undisturbed, for 10 minutes.

2. Stage

Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spray an 8-inch casserole dish with cooking spray.

3. Stage

Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat; stir in sausage, zucchini, bell pepper, onion, and garlic. Saute, stirring occasionally, until veggies are tender and sausage is crumbly and brown, 5 to 7 minutes.

4. Stage

Cut open squash and remove and discard all seeds. Scrape out the flesh with a fork and add to the sausage and veggie mixture. Season with salt and pepper and cook over medium heat for 5 minutes. Stir in pasta sauce and transfer to the prepared casserole dish. Top with shredded Parmesan and mozzarella cheeses.

5. Stage

Bake in the preheated oven until heated through and cheeses are melted, about 15 minutes.
