Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 medium spaghetti squash
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tbsp unsalted butter
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/2 cup shredded fresh mozzarella cheese
  • 1/2 cup ricotta cheese
  • 2 oz cream cheese, softened
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh parsley, chopped (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Cut spaghetti squash in half lengthwise and scoop out seeds.
  2. Drizzle olive oil on cut sides of squash, season with salt and pepper, and place cut-side down on a baking sheet. Roast for 30-40 minutes until tender.
  3. In a saucepan over medium heat, melt butter. Add minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about one minute.
  4. Pour in heavy cream while stirring continuously; gradually add Parmesan, mozzarella, ricotta, and cream cheese to create a smooth alfredo sauce.
  5. Once the squash is cool enough to handle, use a fork to scrape out the strands into a mixing bowl. Combine with alfredo sauce until well coated.
  6. Spoon mixture back into squash halves and sprinkle extra mozzarella on top if desired. Return to oven for an additional 10-15 minutes until bubbly and golden brown.
