Ingredients

Ranch Dressing

  • 1 tbsp dried parsley
  • 1 tbsp dried chives
  • tsp dill weed
  • tsp garlic powder
  • tsp onion powder
  • tsp onion flakes
  • ½ tsp pepper
  • ½ cup mayo
  • ¼ cup water

Casserole

  • 1 medium spaghetti squash
  • 8 pieces bacon, diced
  • 1 lb ground chicken
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp chili powder
  • 1 medium onion, diced
  • 4 cups broccoli florets
  • ½ tsp sea salt
  • ½ tsp ground pepper
  • 1 tbsp grass-fed butter or ghee

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 425°F.
  2. Slice the spaghetti squash in half lengthwise and scoop out the seeds, then place it face-down on a baking sheet and bake for 30 minutes.
  3. While the squash is baking, prepare the ranch dressing by combining all dressing ingredients in a bowl and whisking until smooth. Refrigerate while prepping other ingredients.
  4. Cook the diced bacon in a skillet over medium heat until crispy, about 7-8 minutes. Remove and place on a paper towel.
  5. In the same skillet, add ground chicken and diced onion, cooking until the chicken is done, about 7-8 minutes. Add garlic powder, chili powder, salt, and pepper before removing from heat.
  6. Once the squash has cooled, scrape out the strands into a greased 9x13 casserole dish.
  7. Mix in the cooked chicken, bacon, broccoli, and ranch dressing until well combined.
  8. Bake the casserole in the oven for an additional 15 minutes before serving.
