Spaghetti Squash Ground Beef Pie

Ingredients:

  • 1 medium spaghetti squash
  • 2 TBL butter
  • 1/3 cup grated parmesan cheese
  • 2 eggs, beaten
  • 1 lb. ground beef
  • 2 scallions, thinly sliced
  • 1 1/2 cups low carb spaghetti sauce
  • 1 cup cottage cheese
  • 1/2 cup mozzarella cheese

Preparation Instructions:

Brown ground beef and scallions. Stir in low carb spaghetti sauce and set aside.

Cut spaghetti squash in half, remove the seeds and microwave for about 7 minutes until the pulp comes out in thin strands.

In a mixing bowl stir butter, eggs, and parmesan cheese with squash until well coated.

Line a 10 inch pie plate with squash to make a crust. Spoon and spread the cottage cheese on top of the squash. Top the cottage cheese with the beef and sauce mixture.

Bake pie in a pre-heated 350 degree oven for 25 - 30 minutes or until crust seems set. Top with mozzarella cheese and bake for 5 - 10 more minutes until cheese is melted and bubbly.
