Best 4 Spaghetti Squash Alfredo With Pancetta And Peas Recipes

SPAGHETTI SQUASH ALFREDO

Steps:

• Slice spaghetti squash in half lengthwise. Scoop out the seeds with a spoon and clean as you would a pumpkin. Completely submerge 1 half at a time, in a large pot of boiling water and cook for about 20 minutes until the inside is just tender to a fork and pulls apart in strands. (Cook's Note: It is better to undercook if you're not sure.) Remove, drain and cool with cold water or ice bath to stop the cooking.
• Scoop out the cooked squash from its skin with a spoon as you would an avocado and discard the skin. Use a fork to fluff and separate the squash into "spaghetti"- like strands. You can also use your hands. Reserve the separated cooked squash and dip with a strainer into boiling water to reheat just before serving.
• Melt half the butter in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Add cream and reduce for about 2 minutes, then add garlic and cheese and whisk quickly, heating through. Stir in the rest of the butter and parsley. Place spaghetti squash in a large serving bowl, and pour Alfredo sauce over squash. Garnish with basil and tomatoes. Serve and enjoy!

SKINNY SPAGHETTI SQUASH ALFREDO

Steps:

• 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.
• Bake in the preheated oven until tender, about 60 minutes.
• Gently scrape squash strands into the center of each half using a fork.
• 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. Stir in Parmesan cheese, salt, and pepper.
• Spoon hot sauce equally on to each squash half. Gently pull up the squash strands to coat as much as possible with sauce. Top with extra Parmesan cheese if desired.
• Set an oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler. Place squash halves under the broiler until golden and bubbly, 2 to 3 minutes.

SPAGHETTI SQUASH WITH ALFREDO

Steps:

• Chop off the top (stemmed end) of the spaghetti squash. Cut spaghetti squash long ways down the middle. Scoop out the stringy insides with seeds and set aside.
• Put the two spaghetti squash halves into a pot of boiling water and let sit until insides are soft. Separate squash seeds and pulp. Chop up pulp into smaller segments.
• In a saucepan, combine the heavy whipping cream, the squash pulp, and sprinkle in 1/2 of the parmesan cheese over medium-medium low heat; stirring constantly.
• Add more parmesan cheese every five to six minutes until all is in the pan.
• Stir the sauce until all of the parmesan cheese is melted and sauce is thick (approximately 20-25 minutes).
• When the spaghetti squash halves are soft, scoop out the inside on to a plate or bowl and top with the alfredo sauce.
• Serve immediately.

CREAMY SPAGHETTI SQUASH BOWLS WITH PANCETTA & HERBS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400F and lightly grease a 9x13 inch casserole dish.
• Cut squash in half and scoop out seeds. Brush inside with 1 tablespoon olive oil and season with salt and pepper.
• Add 1 tablespoon of olive oil to a small pan over medium low heat. Add shallot and garlic and sauté until softened, about 7-10 minutes.
• Turn heat to low and add the cream cheese. Break up with a wooden spoon and let melt. Stir in the heavy cream, parsley, and sage. Season with salt and pepper, then remove from heat.
• Add the gruyere cheese to the cavities, dividing evenly between both squash halves. Add the cream mixture on top of the gruyere.
• Cover tightly with aluminum foil and bake 1 hour and 30 minutes or until squash is soft when pierced with a fork.
• Meanwhile cook the pancetta in a skillet over medium heat until crispy, about 10 minutes. Drain on a paper towel-lined plate.
• When the squash is finished baking, scrape the inside of the squash to release all the "noodles." Add the pancetta to each squash bowl, and toss with tongs to combine.
• Garnish with chopped parsley.
