Equipment

  • Oven
  • Baking sheet
  • large pot
  • Spoon

Ingredients
  

  • 2 medium to large spaghetti squash
  • 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 small to medium onion finely chopped
  • 1-2 bell peppers cored and finely chopped
  • 1-2 jalapeños cored and finely chopped
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder use your preferred spice level
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 16-ounce jar salsa use your preferred spice level
  • 1 cup corn kernels fresh or frozen and defrosted
  • 1 15-ounce can black beans drained
  • ½ cup shredded cheese use dairy-free cheese or top with Nacho Cashew Cream

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 425°F and line a cookie sheet with parchment paper.
  • Wash the spaghetti squash then slice off the stems at the top. Cut each squash in half lengthwise. Scrape out the seeds and loose yellow strands then discard them.
  • Place each half face down on the baking sheet. Roast in the oven for about 45 minutes, until pliable. Remove from the oven and set aside to cool.
  • While the squash is roasting, warm one tablespoon oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the onion, peppers, and jalapeño. Cook for 5-7 minutes.
  • Add the spices (chili powder, cumin, smoked paprika, oregano) and toast for several minutes. Pour in the entire jar of salsa, corn, and black beans. Cook until heated through.
  • Once the squash is cool enough to handle, use a fork to loosen the strands inside. Spoon the filling into each squash bowl until they're full. Sprinkle with shredded cheese. Broil in the oven for about 5 minutes until the cheese melts. Serve warm.
