Slice the spaghetti squash lengthwise and scoop out the seeds and center flesh.

Drizzle with olive oil, salt, and pepper and place cut-side down on the baking sheet.

Dice the yellow onion and roughly chop the baby spinach.

Add 1 tablespoon olive oil to a pan over low heat. Saute the onions and garlic until translucent, add the spinach and stir for approximately 30 seconds until it starts to wilt.

Using a fork, scrape the spaghetti squash away from the skin into small strands.

15

Add the spinach and onion mixture, egg, sour cream, and 1/4 cup of Parmesan cheese. Stir until fully combined.

17

Spray an 8x8 glass baking dish with non-stick spray and add the spaghetti squash mixture.

Top with remaining 1/4 cup of Parmesan cheese and bake an additional 30 minutes until golden brown on top.
