    Title: Million Dollar Spaghetti Squash Pasta
    Categories: Pasta
    Yield: 4 Servings

    1/2 lb Lean ground beef or meat
    -substitute
    24 oz Marinara sauce
    1 c Ricotta cheese
    1 1/2 c Mozzarella cheese; shredded,
    -divided
    1/4 c Parmesan cheese; grated
    1 ts Italian seasoning
    Salt and pepper

    Prep Time: 10 minutes
    Cook Time: 1 hour 20 minutes
    Total Time: 1 hour 30 minutes

    Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Carefully cut the spaghetti squash
    in half lengthwise and discard the seeds and membranes

    Place the squash halves in a baking dish. Bake squash for 50-60
    minutes or until just fork tender. Let cool for 10 minutes, then use
    a fork to loosen and shred the squash.

    Meanwhile, heat a medium skillet over medium heat. Add the beef and
    cook, stirring and breaking up the beef, until cooked through and
    browned, about 7-10 minutes. Strain any excess grease from the pan,
    then add the marinara sauce and simmer for another 2-3 minutes. Taste
    and season with salt and pepper to taste.

    Mix the ricotta with the Italian seasoning, a pinch of salt and
    pepper, parmesan cheese, and 1 c shredded mozzarella.

    Pour about half of the marinara sauce mixture over the spaghetti
    squash halves, and use a fork to stir the sauce with the shredded
    squash. Spread the ricotta mixture on top, then the rest of the
    marinara sauce. Top with remaining 1/2 c mozzarella cheese.

    Transfer to the oven and bake for another 10-20 minutes or until the
    cheese is melted and browned in some spots. Broil on high for 2-3
    minutes, if desired for further browning. Remove from the oven and
    let cool for 5 minutes before serving.
