Creamy Baked Spaghetti Squash Parmesan (Low-Carb) Recipe #287725
I know there are a lot of other spaghetti squash recipes posted here on Zaar, but I didn't see one quite like this. This recipe produces a rich, creamy, indulgent, savory, and wonderful casserole! You could serve it as a side dish, with fish, pork, or chicken. Or, serve with a side salad, and you've got a satisfyingly light meal. It's healthy, no matter how you slice it, and perfect for a low-carb diet.

- 1/4-1/2 teaspoon ground cayenne pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon salt

- Pour the cream mixture over the squash, and stir to combine.
- Top with 1/2 cup parmesan cheese.
