"This recipe is quick to prepare and a great alternative for a lower-carbohydrate, lower-calorie option in place of a potato side dish. My husband is a meat-and-potatoes kind of guy and even he loved this recipe."

Directions
{{model.addEditText}} Print- Place spaghetti squash in a covered dish and add 1/4 inch of water. Microwave for 10 to 12 minutes. Scrape insides of squash with a fork and transfer to a small bowl.
- Heat margarine in a medium skillet over medium heat while spaghetti squash is cooking and cook onion, red pepper flakes, garlic powder, salt, and pepper until the onion is browned, 5 to 10 minutes.
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease a baking dish with nonstick cooking spray.
- Mix spaghetti squash, onion mixture, sour cream, and 1/2 of the Cheddar cheese together. Transfer to the prepared baking dish and top with remaining Cheddar cheese.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 20 to 25 minutes. Turn on broiler for the last 2 to 3 minutes and broil until gratin is golden brown on top.

- Cook's Note:
- This is a great way to encourage your kids to eat more vegetables, although you may want to use a touch less red pepper flakes when preparing for them to lessen the spicy heat as it does have a bit of a kick to it.

Yum! I followed the recipe exactly and it was delicious! I normally roast spaghetti squash in the oven but I used the microwave and it worked great. A nice change of pace!

Hubby liked it but I didn't. I followed the directions, except for the pepper flakes. I thought the sour cream was too overpowering.
