Start by baking a halved, seeded 4-pound spaghetti squash at 375° for 30-40 minutes. Meanwhile, cook 1/4 pound ground beef with onion, green pepper, mushrooms, garlic, basil, oregano, salt, and pepper, adding diced tomatoes towards the end. Combine the cooked beef mixture with the scooped squash flesh. Refill the squash shells with this mixture and bake at 350° for 15 minutes, then top with mozzarella and bake for another 5 minutes. Optional: garnish with fresh basil. Enjoy a twist on classic spaghetti with these stuffed squash boats!
