Ingredients
  

  • 1 medium spaghetti squash, split in half with seeds removed PRO TIP: I recommend poking the spaghetti squash all over with a fork and then microwaving it for 3-5 minutes to make it easier to cut into!
  • 1 round of Boursin cheese - I used Garlic and Fine Herbs Flavor but feel free to choose your favorite.
  • 1/4 cup of olive oil plus a bit extra for drizzling
  • Pinch of salt
  • 4-6 minced garlic cloves PRO TIP: buy minced garlic in a jar and see the label conversion for how much you'll need - it's way easier!
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
  • fresh basil leaves for garnish
  • a drizzle of balsamic vinegar glaze

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 400°F.
  • Place halved and seeded spaghetti squash on a baking sheet facing the insides of each half up.
  • Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle a pinch of salt.
  • Cut the Boursin cheese in half and place one half of Boursin inside each of the spaghetti squash halves.
  • Sprinkle half of the minced garlic on one half of the squash and the other half of minced garlic on the other half of the squash.
  • Drop 1/2 cup of the halved cherry tomatoes on one of the squash boats and the other half inside the other squash boat.
  • Drizzle a bit more olive oil on top of both boats and a pinch more salt.
  • Bake it for about 1 hour to 1 hour 15 minutes. You're aiming for tender squash and melted cheese.
  • After baking, remove from the oven and let sit for 2 minutes. Gently stir it all up using a fork, scraping the "spaghetti" from the sides of the squash. The creamy cheese, soft squash, and roasted tomatoes should come together.
  • Sprinkle fresh basil leaves and a drizzle of balsamic vinegar glaze on top!
  • Grab a fork and dig in. You will love!!!
