Ingredients
Scale
2 medium spaghetti squash
1 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
Kosher salt
1/2 tsp chili powder
1/2 tsp cumin
1/2 onion, chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 lb ground beef
1 tbsp taco seasoning mix
Freshly ground black pepper
1 (15-oz) can black beans
1 1/2 c chopped cherry tomatoes
1 c corn, canned and drained or frozen
1 c shredded Monterey jack cheese
1/2 c shredded cheddar cheese
2 tbsp freshly chopped cilantro (optional)
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 400°F. Drizzle olive oil on halved spaghetti squash, then season with salt, chili powder, and cumin. Roast cut-side down on a baking sheet for 30-35 minutes until tender.
In a large skillet over medium heat, cook chopped onion until soft. Add minced garlic and ground beef; cook until browned, about 6 minutes. Drain excess fat.
Stir in taco seasoning, black beans, cherry tomatoes, and corn. Mix well.
Once the squash is ready, fluff the strands with a fork and fill each half with the beef mixture. Top with shredded cheese and return to the oven for 5 minutes until cheese melts.
