Ingredients

Servings

Marinara Sauce:

  • 3 Tbsp olive oil
  • 1/2 large yellow onion finely chopped
  • 4 large cloves garlic minced
  • 1 (28-ounce) can crushed tomatoes
  • 1/2 tsp sea salt fine; or to taste
  • 1/2 tsp oregano dried
  • 1/2 tsp thyme dried
  • 1/8 tsp black pepper ground
  • 1/8 tsp red pepper flakes or to taste
  • 1/4 cup basil chopped, fresh

Mixed Vegetable Spaghetti Squash:

  • 1 large spaghetti squash roasted
  • 2 Tbsp olive oil
  • 1 large yellow onion finely chopped
  • 2 cups baby bella mushroom chopped
  • 1 small crown broccoli chopped
  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 medium zucchini chopped
  • 1 medium yellow squash chopped
  • 2.5 ounces baby spinach 2 handfuls

Instructions

Prepare the Marinara Sauce:

  1. Heat olive oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté, stirring frequently, until translucent, about 10 minutes. Add the garlic and sauté another two minutes.
  2. Add the remaining ingredients except for the basil and bring to a gentle boil. Reduce the heat, cover, and simmer for 20 minutes. Stir in the chopped basil and remove sauce from heat. Set aside until ready to use.

Prepare the Vegetable Pasta:

  1. Roast the spaghetti squash according to these instructions.
  2. Add the olive oil to a medium-sized skillet and heat to medium-high heat. Add the onion and sauté, stirring occasionally, until translucent, about 5 minutes.
  3. Stir in the mushrooms, broccoli, garlic, chopped zucchini and yellow squash. Continue cooking, stirring occasionally, until mushrooms and broccoli have softened, about 10 to 15 minutes.
  4. Add the baby spinach and cover the skillet. Cook until the spinach has wilted, about 2 minutes.
  5. Once spaghetti squash has finished roasting, use a fork to scrape out the "noodles." Serve spaghetti squash with desired amount of sauteed vegetables, marinara sauce, and fresh grated parmesan cheese on top (or skip the parm to make this vegan and paleo).
