Spaghetti Squash Au Gratin is a favorite around my house. I am always looking for ways to serve it, and it has become a huge favorite! Perfect side dish next time you are looking for something to try!
As soon as my hubby tasted it, he just kept saying how much he loved it!
Jans' Tip: I did tweak the recipe though just a touch. I had added a whole can of soup. Was too much. I ended up draining some of it out, and still felt it was a little too much sauce, so I have cut that down in the recipe below, but if you make double batch, say for a family reunion or something, than a whole can would be perfect.
