I love a recipe that has all the things in one dish. This Spaghetti Squash Bolognese checks all the boxes: meat, cheese, veg, savory, filling, hearty…
I use an entire jar of Eat Happy Kitchen Tomato Basil Marinara, and it takes the flavor of this dish to the next level. You can use 2 14-ounce cans of tomatoes and 3 tablespoons of tomato paste, adding in an addition teaspoon of salt. But trust me, stick to my gravy, and you won’t go wrong with the flavor.
You are welcome to sub in any veggie you like in place of the Brussels sprouts.
Y’all know I hate writing anything that’s not a recipe, so let’s get to the main event, shall we?

Anna,
Tried this recipe and loved it👍🏻 My husband doesn’t like spaghetti squash, but he’s not NSNG so I said fine. More for me. 🥰
hahaha! That’s how I feel too!!

My husband doesn’t like brussels sprouts but went back for seconds!
I love this so freakin’ much.
This was only my second time cooking (or eating) spaghetti squash … and while cutting it open was a b***h, the results? Oh my ….
I know about cutting the squash, both hubby and I hacked at it for a while before I came up with Plan B as follows! Place the spaghetti squash in the microwave briefly to make it easier to cut, or ask the produce department of your grocery store to cut it in half for you, they will usually be glad to do so.
This is such a great recipe! I am not a big fan of Brussel sprouts but I still loved this recipe. It’s also easily adaptable, you can substitute turkey, another vegetable for the Brussel sprouts, more or less cheese. Such a perfect fall or winter meal. It also reheats beautifully.
This is delicious! I used the Eat Happy marinara and followed the recipe exactly and it was perfect! I’ve tried other spaghetti squash/marinara bakes that were too heavy. This one will go into my “make it again” file for sure!
We both loved this! I used ground turkey and then I couldn’t find brussel sprouts (I admit I didn’t look too hard) so I used cauliflower and it was YUMMY! Now I’m searching for more recipes on this site.
Cauliflower is a perfect substitute! And yes, please keep searching for more recipes–I’m glad you’re here, and I hope you enjoy. I don’t post a recipe unless I’ve tested it multiple times and stand behind it 100%!

Can this be made ahead and refrigerated? Any experience how long to reheat?
You could make it ahead of time, keep it in the fridge, and then do the last oven cook as instructed.
This was the perfect recipe to split with my non-NSNG husband. I pulled out half of the completed meat sauce for him to have with regular spaghetti. I added cauliflower and mushrooms to my portion, and followed the remaining instructions. Delicious for both of us!
I love this so much! What a perfect way to feed a house divided with no issues!
XOXO
Anna
