Low Carb Spaghetti Squash Egg Casserole

Enjoy these casserole squares as either your breakfast or as a hearty side dish to your main meal. Spaghetti squash is low carb and, when cooked right, has a similar texture to pasta. That’s why this casserole is so filling! Seasoned egg and tons of melted cheddar finish of the dish.

Recipe Steps

steps 6

1 h 22 min

  • Step 1

    Preheat an oven to 400 degrees. Slice a medium spaghetti squash in half and remove the seeds. Lay the halves face up on a sheet tray and sprinkle the salt and pepper over the squash.
    Step 1
  • Step 2

    Bake the tray for 30-35 minutes, until a fork can pierce straight through the flesh. Once you allow the squash to cool, use a fork to shred up the squash (it is this amount that yields the weight listed in your ingredients).
    Step 2
  • Step 3

    In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, cream, salt, and onion powder.
  • Step 4

    Arrange the spaghetti squash in the base of a 2QT glass baking dish lined with pan spray. Pour the egg mixture over the squash until it fills the pan.
    Step 4
  • Step 5

    Arrange the cheddar cheese over the top of the casserole and bake in your oven for 20 minutes. Then, reduce the oven to 350 degrees and bake for an additional 15 minutes.
    Step 5
  • Step 6

    Cool and slice into 6 slices and serve.

    This casserole was amazing! I followed all the directions as is, but added red, yellow and orange pepper rings that partially cooked in the microwave before pouring the egg mixture over the spaghetti squash. Will make this again!

      Easy to do but a bit time-consuming due to the cooking times. Has a light texture but is a bit bland, this could use some spices. I cut the recipe in half since I’m alone.

        You can cook the squash in the microwave for 12-15 minutes

      Delicate and subtle. I thoroughly mixed the squash with the custard before baking and the texture was pleasing. I added a few dashes of hot sauce and some crispy bacon on the side to meet my breakfast macros. Delicious and filling breakfast

          Try adding some dry mustard powder to the spices.
