1 spaghetti squash
4 Tbsp unsalted butter
2 cups heavy cream
1 garlic clove, grated
2 cups freshly grated Parmesan
1 cup cheddar cheese
2 Tbsp chopped fresh parsley
Directions:
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
- Cut spaghetti squash in half lengthwise and scoop out the seedy part.
- Put a little olive oil on the exposed cut part and set cut side down on a baking sheet; cook in preheated oven for 35 to 45 minutes or until fork tender.
- Remove, let cool slightly, then flip over and pull "spaghetti strands" out of squash using a fork; put spaghetti strands in a large bowl; cover to keep warm and set aside.
- Put 2 Tbsp of the butter in a saucepan over medium heat, stirring until melted.
- Slowly drizzle in the cream, whisking as you add and cook, stirring, for 2 to 3 minutes.
- Add the garlic, stir, then, while stirring, start adding the cheese, continually stirring with a big spoon in a 'figure 8' until all cheese is added and blended well.
- Add the parsley and stir.
- Pour the cheese sauce over the warm spaghetti squash "noodles" and toss to combine. Taste for salt and season if necessary. Serve with a sprinkle of Parmesan cheese if desired.
