Ingredients

  • 1 medium spaghetti squash
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 lb chicken breast (cut into bite size pieces)
  • 1 cup broccoli florets (lightly steamed)
  • 1/2 yellow onion (diced)
  • 1 tbsp flour (I used GF all purpose)
  • 1/3 cup milk (I used oat)
  • 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 2 tbsp parmesan cheese
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1 tsp salt & pepper

Directions

  1. 1

    Preheat oven to 400 degrees.

  2. 2

    Poke 4-5 holes in your squash and microwave for 6-8 minutes, flipping it over half way through. It should be a little soft, but firm on the inside. Cut in half longways and remove the seeds inside.

  3. 3

    Heat a skillet over medium heat. Add a drizzle of olive oil then add in your chicken. I seasoned mine with salt, pepper and garlic powder. Add in the onions and sauté until chicken is cooked through. Add in broccoli and flour then stir to combine.

  4. 4

    Next add the milk, cheese, garlic powder, paprika, salt and pepper to make your sauce. To thicken the sauce, sprinkle in more flour 1 tsp at a time. If it’s took thick, add more milk.

  5. 5

    Scoop the mixture in the spaghetti squash and top with a little more cheese (optional). Bake for 15-20 minutes until cheese is melted and the squash easily flakes off with a fork.
