Description

Cheesy, Meaty, Spaghetti Squash boats that will be a dinner hit!


Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 small spaghetti squash, cut in half lengthwise and seeds removed
  • 1 lb sweet italian ground chicken sausage (or sausage with the casing removed)
  • 1 lb sweet italian ground pork sausage (or sausage with the casing removed)
  • 1 bag shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 8 oz white mushrooms, thinly sliced
  • 1 jar Rao’s arrabbiata sauce, or other arrabbiata sauce
  • 1/2 sweet onion, diced
  • 2 medium carrots, diced
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • garlic powder
  • salt + pepper

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375. 
  2. Drizzle the insides of spaghetti squash with some olive oil and spread around with your hands so that they are evenly coated. Season with Salt and Pepper and add to a sheet tray. 
  3. Flip the squash over so that the cut side is down on the tray. Bake for 30 minutes.
  4. While squash is cooking, heat up a 12 inch pan over medium-high heat. Add a little olive oill then add in the sausage (casings removed if using links) and cook until browned. Remove from the pan reserving the fat in the pan. 
  5. Add in the carrot and onion to the pan. Season with salt and pepper and cook for 2 minutes, stirring often. 
  6. Add in the mushrooms and season with a bit more salt and pepper and a little garlic powder. Cook for 5 minutes, stirring often. Add in the minced garlic and cook for 2 minutes.
  7. Add the cooked sausage back to the pan. Pour in the Rao’s sauce and stir, lower heat and let everything simmer for 5 to 10 minutes. Turn off heat and let cool for 5 minutes.
  8. Once the squash is done cooking for the 30 minutes, remove from oven and let cool for 5 to 10 minutes. Grab a fork and create the noodles by going back and forth across squash. 
  9. Push noodles to the sides to create some room for the sauce in the middle. Spoon the sausage sauce mixture into each spaghetti squash boat until almost full (not overflowing) 
  10. Sprinkle a layer of mozzarella cheese over each spaghetti squash boat and broil on high for 3-5 minutes. Keep a close eye on these since they brown up fast!

Notes

  • Could use all chicken or all pork sausage for this.
  • Shredded Italian cheese works as well.
  • Have fun with the toppings.  Add in Peppers, Jalapeños, Tomatoes, etc.

Beefy 5 Layer Taco Dip Recipe 🌮 🥑 

So pumped March Madness is finally here!  @goodfoods and I partnered up to kick off the tournament with a super tasty dip recipe!  This will definitely be a party favorite.  Recipe is below and good luck to your teams playing!

RECIPE:

INGREDIENTS:
1 1/2 lb ground beef
1/2 medium sweet onion, diced
1 LG vine ripened tomato, seeds removed and diced
1 can sliced black olives
LG @goodfoods Chunky Guacamole Container
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
8 oz sour cream
taco seasoning packet
1/4 cup chicken broth
1 tbsp chili powder
1 tsp salt
1/4 tsp pepper
arrowroot slurry (1 tsp arrowroot + 1 tsp water combined)

STEPS

Start off by preparing the ground beef taco mixture.  Saute the diced onion in some oil for 3-5 minutes.  Add in the ground beef and break up into small chunks.  Cook until browned.  Add in the 1 tbsp chili powder, 1 tsp salt, and 1/4 tsp pepper.  Mix up then add in the chicken broth and saute for a few minutes.  Let this reduce a bit then drop the heat to low.  Add in the slurry and stir until it begins to thicken.  Drop the heat to a simmer and pull from the heat and add to a bowl once the liquid is gone.  Let this cool off for a bit.

Add 1 cup of sour cream to a bowl and mix in the taco seasoning packet until combined.

Grab a medium sized bowl or casserole dish and scoop the ground beef for the first layer.  Depending how big your bowl or dish is, scoop only the amount needed to create a nice layer.  Now do a layer of the sour cream mixture.  Now do a nice layer of the good foods chunky guacamole.  Sprinkle on the cheese then top with the tomato and black olives.  Serve with your favorite tortilla chips or make a taco salad bowl with it!

Random thought of the day…. Fried Brussels Sprouts are 100% worth all the gas. Do you agree?

They are also one of the easiest things to make! I like to cut the ends off then I quarter them. Save those outer leaves to fry as well. Add a pot with 1 cup Avocado oil and heat to 325. Fry them for a few minutes on each side until they start to brown. Add them to a wire rack to drain the oil then add them to a bowl and season with some salt, pepper, and garlic powder. I also made a pomegranate maple reduction that paired beautifully with these! All I did was boiled down some pomegranate juice, a few tbsp of maple syrup, and a splash of rice wine vinegar until it turned into a nice glaze consistency.

Hope you guys enjoy!

PROSCIUTTO WRAPPED SHRIMP 🍤 

I had some leftover prosciutto from Thanksgiving so wanted to do something fun with it. I gave this a try and it was a home run! Literally just clean and dry your shrimp then cut prosciutto slices into thirds. Wrap one of the pieces around the shrimp and ensure you overlap the prosciutto and it should stick to itself.

Get a pan on medium heat with a few tbsp of EVOO in there. Add the shrimp and sear for 2-3 min each side depending how big the shrimp are. Top with some fresh cracked pepper and a sprinkle of salt.

I made a spicy mustard dipping sauce to pair it with that consisted of a few scoops of Mayo, drizzle of white wine vinegar, small pour of Calabrian chili oil, some Dijon mustard, and some honey.
