Spaghetti Squash with Ham and Peas image

I have been on the hunt for this recipe for a long time, and I recall the one I read some time ago had mayonnaise in it. The one I found on the net didn't.

Time 1h15m

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 spaghetti squash
1/3 c butter
3 clove garlic, minced
1/2 c diced onions
1/2 c half and half
8 oz diced ham
2 c frozen peas
1/2 c shredded italian cheeses (or can substitute parmagiano)
salt and pepper to taste
1/4 c shredded cheese to top the dish

Steps:

  • 1. Prep: Bake squash at 375 for an hour and let cool. Once cool slice in half and clean out the seeds. With a fork remove the "spaghetti" and place in a bowl to use later. And save the squash shells, too.
  • 2. In a pan melt the butter and lightly brown the garlic (about a minute or two), then add the onion and cook until translucent. Stir in the half and half until heated through and add the diced ham, until heated, then stir in the frozen peas 1/2 cup at a time. When heated through (about 3-5 minutes) add in the shredded cheeses (or parmigiano as an alternative)and salt and pepper to taste. Now mix the ham and peas into the squash "noodles" and put back into the squash shells. Top with more cheese (about a small handful) and microwave for 2-3 minutes or until additional cheese is melted.

I love that this recipe is so versatile. You can add or remove ingredients to suit your own taste. I like to add a little bit of red pepper flakes for a bit of spice.

This recipe is a great way to get your kids to eat their vegetables. The peas are hidden in the sauce, so they don't even realize they're eating them.

I'm on a low-carb diet, so I used zucchini noodles instead of spaghetti squash. It was still delicious, and it helped me stay on track with my diet.

I'm a vegetarian, so I substituted the ham for tofu. It turned out great! The tofu absorbed the flavors of the sauce perfectly, and it was just as delicious as the ham.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover ham. I always have ham left over after Easter, and this is the perfect way to use it up. It's also a great way to get your kids to eat their vegetables.
