Taco Spaghetti Squash Boats!
Ingredients:
1 medium spaghetti squash
1 lb ground beef (or turkey/chicken/brown lentils or firm tofu crumbled for vegan option).
1 onion, diced
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 cup corn (fresh or frozen)
1 can diced tomatoes (or 2 fresh, chopped)
1 cup beans (black beans or kidney beans work well)
Taco seasoning (cumin, chili powder, paprika, oregano, salt & pepper – or a packet)
Olive oil
Fresh cilantro or cheese for topping (optional)
Instructions:
Preheat oven to 400°F. Slice the spaghetti squash in half lengthwise, scoop out seeds, brush with olive oil, and bake cut-side down on a tray for 35-40 minutes, until tender.
While it bakes, cook ground beef in a skillet until browned. Add onion and garlic, sauté until fragrant.
Stir in corn, tomatoes, beans, and taco seasoning. Simmer 5-10 minutes until flavors come together.
When squash is done, let it cool slightly, then use a fork to scrape into spaghetti-like strands.
Pile taco mixture on top of the squash “noodles.” Add toppings like cheese, avocado, or fresh cilantro if you’d like.
Serve warm and enjoy your fall comfort bowl.
