Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and prepare a baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper.
  2. Poke several slits in the spaghetti squash and microwave it whole for 3-4 minutes until slightly softened.
  3. Cut the spaghetti squash in half lengthwise, scoop out the seeds, creating hollow spaces for the filling.
  4. Place the squash halves cut-side up on your prepared baking sheet and scatter the halved cherry tomatoes over them.
  5. Drizzle the squash and tomatoes with olive oil, then sprinkle garlic powder and salt evenly.
  6. Crumble Boursin cheese into each squash half, top with diced andouille sausage and sun-dried tomatoes.
  7. Bake for 35-50 minutes in the preheated oven until squash is tender and easily separates into strands.
  8. Let the dish rest for 10-15 minutes, then mix roasted tomatoes with Boursin cheese to create a creamy sauce.
  9. Fluff the spaghetti squash strands with a fork and serve warm, garnished with fresh herbs or a drizzle of olive oil.
