Ingredients
- 1 3-lb Spaghetti squash
- 3 cups Broccoli florets
- 2 cups Cheddar
- 4 oz Cream cheese
- 1/2 cup Heavy cream
- 2 Eggs
- 1 tsp Dijon mustard
- 1 tsp Garlic powder
Steps
- Heat the oven to 400°F. Halve the squash lengthwise, scoop out the seeds, rub the cut sides with oil and salt, and roast cut-side down 35 to 40 minutes, until a fork pulls the flesh into long strands.
- Meanwhile, steam the broccoli 3 minutes until bright green and just tender — it finishes cooking in the oven.
- Scrape the squash into strands with a fork; if it looks watery, squeeze it in a clean kitchen towel.
- Whisk the cream, cream cheese, eggs, Dijon, and garlic powder until smooth; fold in the squash strands, broccoli, and half the cheddar.
- Spread into a greased 9x13-inch baking dish and top with the remaining cheddar.
- Bake 20 minutes, until deeply golden and bubbling at the edges.
- Rest 10 minutes before scooping — it sets up as it stands.
