You've heard of stuffed pizza before, but have you ever tried pizza-stuffed squash? Patty's Pizza Stuffed Squash recipe delivers great pizzeria taste while still being a healthier alternative for a diabetic-friendly diet!

What You'll Need

1 spaghetti squash, cut in half and seeds removed
2 teaspoons olive oil, divided
1 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder, divided
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/4 cup onion, chopped
1/2 cup green bell pepper, chopped
1 cup fresh mushrooms, sliced
1/2 cup pizza sauce
1/4 cup low-fat shredded mozzarella cheese
6 slices pepperoni

What to Do

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.
Brush the inside of each squash with 1/2 teaspoon of olive oil. Sprinkle with 1/2 teaspoon of garlic powder and black pepper. Place the squash cut-side-down on baking sheet. Bake for 45 minutes.
Meanwhile, in a large skillet, heat 1 teaspoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the onion, bell pepper, mushrooms, and remaining garlic, and cook for 6 to 8 minutes, or until vegetables are tender, stirring occasionally. Stir in pizza sauce.
Spoon the mixture evenly into the cavity of the squash. Sprinkle with cheese, then top with pepperoni. Bake for 8 to 10 minutes, or until heated through.
