Yield 4 servings (7-8 cups)

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 large spaghetti squash (3 1/2-4 pounds)
Kosher salt, freshly ground black pepper
Nonstick vegetable cooking spray
1 oil-packed anchovy fillet, drained, finely chopped (optional)
1 garlic clove, finely chopped
12 ounces cherry tomatoes (about 2 cups)
1 pint shiitake mushrooms, stemmed, quartered (about 1 1/2 cups)
1/4 cup pitted oil-cured black olives, chopped
1 tablespoon drained capers
1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
3 tablespoons olive oil, divided
1/4 cup pine nuts
1/4 cup coarsely chopped fresh basil, divided
1/4 cup coarsely chopped fresh parsley, divided
1/2 cup ricotta
Special equipment:
An 18x13" rimmed baking sheet

Steps:

  • Position rack in center of oven and preheat to 375°F. Halve squash lengthwise and scoop out seeds. Season inside of squash with salt and pepper. Coat baking sheet with cooking spray; lay halves cut side down on sheet and bake 30 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, combine anchovy (if using), garlic, tomatoes, mushrooms, olives, capers, red pepper flakes, and 2 Tbsp. oil in a large bowl. Remove baking sheet from oven and transfer tomato mixture to sheet alongside squash. Return to oven and cook until squash is tender and shell is easily pierced, about 15 minutes more.
  • Meanwhile, toast pine nuts in a dry small skillet over medium-low heat, tossing often, until golden brown, about 4 minutes. Immediately transfer to a plate; set aside.
  • Remove sheet from oven. Scrape squash crosswise to pull strands from shells into a medium bowl; discard shells. Using the back of a fork or spoon, gently push down on tomatoes on sheet to break them up and release their juices. Scrape tomato mixture and any accumulated juices into bowl with squash. Add remaining 1 Tbsp. oil, then toss with half of basil, parsley, and reserved pine nuts. Divide among bowls and dollop with ricotta. Garnish with remaining basil, parsley, and pine nuts.

SPAGHETTI SQUASH PUTTANESCA WITH TOFU



Spaghetti Squash Puttanesca With Tofu image

Invented this today trying to figure out something for lunch. Ingredients can easily be substituted to make this vegetarian or vegan. Simply use vegetable broth and soy cheese equivalents. Much lower carb than traditional spaghetti. I do the spaghetti squash in the microwave, which is super easy. Cut in half, scrape the seeds, then cook until it breaks into strands easily with a fork. I guessed at the spice amounts, so adjust to your own taste. Prep time includes pressing and draining tofu.

Time 50m

Yield 2-4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 17

1/2-1 spaghetti squash, cooked
1/2 lb firm tofu, pressed and cubed
1 (14 1/2 ounce) can Italian-style stewed tomatoes
1/4-1/3 cup chicken broth
1/2 tablespoon dried minced onion flakes
1/2 tablespoon dried parsley
1/2 teaspoon dried chili pepper flakes
1/2 teaspoon dried basil
1/2 teaspoon granulated garlic
1/4 teaspoon dried thyme
1/4 teaspoon fresh ground pepper
1 dash ground nutmeg
12 kalamata olives, chopped
1 tablespoon capers, chopped
1/2 cup cremini mushroom, rough chopped
2 tablespoons parmesan cheese
1/4 cup feta cheese

Steps:

  • In 10 inch saute pan, combine stewed tomatoes, chicken broth, onion, parsley, pepper flakes, basil, garlic, thyme, ground pepper, and nutmeg. Bring to boil and reduce heat, simmering about 10 minutes. If your tomatoes are not chopped, break them apart with the back of a spoon.
  • Add olives, capers, and mushrooms and continue to simmer until mushrooms are tender, about 10 minutes. If needed, add more chicken broth. Add Parmesan and stir into sauce.
  • Add cubed tofu and gently fold into sauce. Cover and let simmer until tofu is heated and has absorbed some flavor, about 5 minutes. Stir in cooked shredded spaghetti squash and top with Feta. Re-cover and let sit on low heat until heated through and cheese has softened.

Tips:

  • To make sure the spaghetti squash is cooked evenly, cut it in half lengthwise and scoop out the seeds. Then, place the squash halves cut-side up on a baking sheet and drizzle with olive oil. Season with salt and pepper, and roast in a preheated oven at 400°F for 45-50 minutes, or until the squash is tender.
  • While the squash is roasting, prepare the puttanesca sauce by sautéing garlic, anchovies, capers, and olives in olive oil. Add the tomatoes and cook until the sauce has thickened. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Once the squash is cooked, remove it from the oven and let it cool slightly. Then, use a fork to scrape the squash into strands.
  • To assemble the dish, place the spaghetti squash on a serving platter and top with the puttanesca sauce. Garnish with fresh parsley and serve immediately.

Conclusion:

Sheet pan spaghetti squash puttanesca is a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for busy weeknights. It is a healthy and flavorful dish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages.
