Spaghetti Squash Marinara with Italian Sausage and Garlic Bread
4

Serves 4

We love the combo of spaghetti squash with our fresh sausage, ground in-house using the same meat that's in our case, following the same strict standards, including no antibiotics, ever! Top this recipe with grated parmesan cheese, if desired.

    Method: 

    Preheat oven to 375°F. Arrange squash in dish, cut sides down. Pour 1/2 cup water into the dish and bake until just tender, 30 to 35 minutes. Rake with a fork to remove flesh in strands. Meanwhile, heat a skillet over medium heat and cook sausage, breaking into smaller pieces, until almost done, about 5 minutes. Add onion and cook, 6 to 8 minutes more. Add pasta sauce and simmer 2 to 3 minutes. Keep warm. Combine butter, garlic and basil; spread onto one side of bread; place on a baking sheet and bake about 10 minutes. Portion squash into bowls, top with sauce and serve with garlic bread.
