Ingredients

For squash:

For filling:

  • 1 cup cooked shredded rotisserie chicken
  • 1 small onion diced
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 3/4 cup Franks hot sauce
  • 1/2 cup shredded Parmesan cheese
  • 4 ounces cream cheese
  • 1/4 cup Ranch dressing
  • 1/2 teaspoon granulated garlic
  • 1/2 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt

For topping:

  • Ranch dressing
  • Sliced green onions

Instructions

For spaghetti squash:

  • Preheat your oven to 425 degrees F. 
  • Cut your spaghetti squash into two halves.  If you have trouble cutting it, pierce it with a fork and microwave it for 3-5 minutes on high.  That’ll make it much easier to cut through. But, make sure to pierce it with a fork so that it doesn’t explode! 
  • After cutting your spaghetti squash, remove the seeds and discard them. 
  • Drizzle with olive oil and generously coat with salt and pepper. 
  • Place them face down on a rimmed baking sheet, add a splash of water to the baking sheet, and cook for about 30-40 minutes or until the sides are easily pierced with a fork. 
  • When the squash is tender and fully cooked remove it from the oven and set it aside.

For filling:

  • In a bowl add all the filling ingredients and stir until combined.
  • Fill the cavities of the spaghetti squash with the buffalo chicken mixture and return to the oven for ten minutes.
  • Remove from the oven and gently pull the sides of the squash with a fork and mix the strands with the buffalo chicken filling.
  • Top with desired toppings.
