When baked in the oven, the inside of spaghetti squash takes on a noodle-like texture, making it a perfect low-carb alternative to your favorite pasta recipe. And this creamy primavera recipe takes spaghetti squash to the next level. The squash is loaded with vegetables like mushroom, broccoli, and asparagus, then it’s tossed with a creamy parmesan mixture, which you can also make dairy-free.

How to Make It

1. Step
Preheat oven to 400ºF (200ºC).
2. Step
With a sharp knife, slice the squash in half. If the squash is too tough, puncture in several places forming a dotted line around the squash. Microwave for 3-5 minutes to soften. Allow to cool before cutting in half.
3. Step
Scoop out the seeds, brush with oil, and sprinkle with salt, and pepper. Bake for 40-45 minutes, or until a fork can easily pierce the skin.
4. Step
Meanwhile, in a pan combine oil, garlic, and onion over medium heat, and sautè until onions are translucent.
5. Step
Add mushrooms and cook for 3 minutes. Add the broccoli, asparagus, squash, tomatoes, salt, and pepper and cook until almost cooked through.
6. Step
Add the milk/ milk alternative until warmed through. Add the vegetarian Parmesan and mix until evenly spread throughout vegetables. Add the lemon juice and stir to combine.
7. Step
Remove squash from the oven, with a fork pull at the edges to produce that stringy “spaghetti” quality.
8. Step
In the pan combine “spaghetti” with vegetables. Return to the squash and top with Parmesan.
9. Step
Enjoy!
