03 Method

Step 1

Preheat oven to 425°. Arrange broccoli florets on the baking sheet, drizzle with 1 tablespoon olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Toss gently to coat evenly, then roast for 20 minutes or until brown.
Step 2

Meanwhile, in large pot, heat remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil. Add onion and cook for 4 minutes, or until tender, then add 1 clove garlic and cook for 1 more minute. Add tomatoes and juices, and gently crush tomatoes with wooden spoon. Let sauce come to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 15 minutes. Stir in sugar and basil, and season with salt and pepper.
Step 3

While sauce is simmering, place spaghetti squash halves in microwave-safe dish, cut-side down, and add about ½ cup of water. Microwave on high for 12 minutes, rotating dish halfway through, until squash is tender, then let sit 5 minutes. When squash is cool enough to handle, scrape out insides with a fork (it will resemble pasta). Discard skins.
Step 4

In a large saute pan, heat 1 tablespoon Country Crock spread. Add remaining 1 clove garlic and cook for 1 minute or until fragrant, then add spaghetti squash and cook for 2 to 3 minutes or until soft. Stir in Parmesan and remaining 2 tablespoons Country Crock, then season with salt and pepper.
Step 5

Serve spaghetti squash with tomato sauce on top and roasted broccoli on the side. Garnish with extra Parmesan, if desired.
