Spaghetti Squash with Creamy Pumpkin Sauce Recipe

Spaghetti Squash with Creamy Pumpkin Sauce Recipe

  • cooking spray
  • 1 spaghetti squash, halved and seeded
  • 1/4 cup butter
  • 1 shallot, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/2 (14.5 ounce) can pumpkin puree
  • 1 cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 teaspoon white truffle oil
  • salt and ground black pepper to taste
  1. Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Coat a baking sheet with cooking spray.
  2. Place the squash halves cut-side down onto the prepared baking sheet.
  3. Bake in the preheated oven until the squash skin is easily pierced with a fork, 40 to 45 minutes. Remove from oven and allow to cool. Once the squash is cool enough to handle, shred squash flesh from rind using a fork; set aside in a large bowl.
  4. Melt the butter in a skillet over medium heat; cook and stir the shallot and garlic in the hot butter until softened, 3 to 5 minutes. Stir the pumpkin puree, Greek yogurt, and Parmesan cheese with the shallot and garlic until well combined; cook until hot. Remove from heat and scrape the sauce into the bowl with the squash. Drizzle with the truffle oil; season with salt and pepper.
