Ingredients
- 1 spaghetti squash about 3 pounds
- 3 shallot diced
- 8 ounces cremini mushroom sliced
- 2 tablespoons olive oil divided
- 1 kale center stem removed and roughly chopped (about 4-6 cups, bunch
- 4 garlic pressed or finely minced, cloves
- 1 cup marinara sauce click HERE for recipe or your marinara sauce of choice, Easy 20 Minute Classic
- 2 ounces soft goat cheese chevre
- salt
- black pepper
- red pepper flakes
- 1/2 teaspoon oregano dried
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F.
- Prepare spaghetti squash by cutting of ends and slicing in half lengthwise. Scoop out the seeds in the center. Place face up in a microwave safe dish and microwave for 12-20 minutes, until spaghetti squash is cooked and easily shreds into "noodles" with a fork. When cooked, allow to cool a bit, then shred the flesh into "spaghetti noodles", remove from the shell but set the shells aside to use later.
- Mix one tablespoon of olive oil with the garlic and set aside.
- While spaghetti squash is cooking, heat one tablespoon of oil in a saute pan over medium heat. Add the shallots and mushrooms, season with salt and pepper and cook, stirring often, until mushrooms are browned and shallots are softened, about 7-10 minutes.
- Add the kale, and the garlic/oil mixture, along with a pinch of red pepper flakes, oregano, and season with a little more salt and pepper. Stir to combine.
- Sauté for about 5 minutes, until kale is wilted but still bright green.
- Remove half of the kale mixture and set aside. Add the spaghetti squash to the remaining mixture and combine. Add the marinara sauce and stir to coat.
- Spoon the spaghetti squash/kale back into the shells. Top with the remaining kale/mushroom mixture. Break the goat cheese into pieces on top.
- Bake in the oven for about 15 minutes, until the kale is starting to get crispy and the goat cheese is softened and starting to brown.
- One boat is two servings.
