- While spaghetti squash is cooking, slice sausage into coin shapes and stir fry on the stove top with alfredo sauce, cherry tomatoes and spinach on low-medium heat.
- Remove spaghetti squash from the oven.
- Shred spaghetti squash with a fork, keeping the “spaghetti” strands in the boat.
- Add sauce, sausage, spinach cherry tomatoes mixture and seasonings to the boat, mix contents together.
- Bake for another 5 minutes, then broil for 3 minutes.
