It's SUPER easy to make this recipe vegetarian. Simply sub out the beef for extra veggies! Bell peppers, spinach, and red onions would all be great additions.

Ingredients
FOR SPAGHETTI SQUASH
- 2 medium spaghetti squash, halved, seeds removed
- 1 tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil
- Kosher salt
- ½ tsp. chili powder
- ½ tsp. cumin
FOR FILLING
- 1 tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil
- ½ onion, chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 lb. ground beef
- 1 tbsp. taco seasoning mix
- Kosher salt
- Freshly ground black pepper

Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400°. Drizzle cut sides of spaghetti squash with oil and season with salt, chili powder, and cumin. Place cut side down on a large, rimmed baking sheet. Roast until tender, 30 to 35 minutes. Let cool slightly. Using a fork, break up squash strands.
- Meanwhile, make filling: In a large skillet over medium heat, heat olive oil. Add onion and cook until soft, about 5 minutes. Stir in garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute more. Add ground beef, breaking up the meat with a wooden spoon. Cook until beef is no longer pink, about 6 minutes. Drain fat.

- Fill each spaghetti squash with beef mixture and top with cheeses. Return to oven to melt cheese, 5 minutes. Garnish with cilantro and serve.
