How to make Broccoli Cheese Stuffed Spaghetti Squash:

**scroll all the way down for full printable ingredient list and directions**

• Prep the squash by cutting it in half. You need a heavy chef's knife and a strong grip. Cut the squash in half and then remove the seeds from the center.
• In a microwave save dish, place your squash halves side by side. Add about ¼ cup water to the bottom of the dish (water should be covering the bottom, but not more than ¼ inch high). Place into microwave and cook on high for 9-11 minutes, or until squash is tender** Remove, and set aside for about 10 minutes to cool.
• In a large skillet, add red pepper flakes and cook for 30 seconds, stirring constantly. Add broccoli and garlic, stirring to combine. Add about 2 TBS water to the skillet, and turn up the heat. Saute for 3-5 more minutes, or until the chopped broccoli is tender. Add mixture to a large bowl, discarding any left over water.

• Using a fork, scrape out the flesh/'spaghetti' of the squash, and add it to the large bowl with the broccoli mixture. Add Parmesan cheese, salt and pepper, and Italian seasoning to the mixture, stir to combine.
• Turn your broiler on medium/high. Distribute the mixture back into the squash shells, then sprinkle ¼ cup of mozzarella cheese on top of each squash half. Place shells into an oven safe baking dish/pan.
• Place under broiler, watching carefully. Remove when cheese is bubbling and browned, about 2-3 minutes depending on how close the squash is to the broiler. Remove and enjoy!
