Here is how you make Chicken Spaghetti Squash:

After cooking chicken, or purchasing the rotisserie bird, remove as much meat as possible and dice into bite-sized pieces. (Optionally, save and finely dice skin.) Set meat (and skin) aside. Melt butter in saute pan, add red pepper, then saute the onion and pepper 4-5 minutes. Add garlic last 30 seconds. Set aside.Split Squash down the middle, length-wise, and scoop out seeds. Place the halves, cut-side down in the largest dish that will fit in your microwave (9x13) and microwave for 10-12 minutes. Leave in microwave for another 3-4 minutes. Remove and use fork to shred squash into large bowl. Careful, it's gonna be hot.In medium bowl, microwave cream cheese and heavy cream for 30-60 seconds. Stir well. Add all but 1/2 Cup of the cheddar and monterey cheeses, and 2 ounces of Parmesan. (Optionally, you can stir in skin now for lots of chicken flavor.) Microwave for about 2 minutes, in 30 second intervals, stirring at each interval. After all cheese has melted and looks like a sauce, add 1/2 Cup of broth, more if consistency dictates. You're looking for something like pasta sauce.Add chicken, sauteed veggies and sauce to bowl with squash. Stir well, deposit into large enough casserole to hold and smooth down top. Cover with remaining cheeses, 1/2 Cup each of cheddar and monterey, and 1 oz of parmesan.Cook, uncovered in 350-375 degree oven for 30-40 minutes. Remove and allow to cool 10-15 minutes.Serving Size: Makes approximately 10 1-cup servingsNumber of Servings: 10Recipe submitted by SparkPeople user KRYPTONICUS.
