KIELBASA-&-SWISS SPAGHETTI SQUASH CASSEROLE

Steps:

• Place squash cut-side down in a microwave-safe dish; add 2 tablespoons water. Microwave, uncovered, on High until the flesh is tender, about 10 minutes. (Alternatively, place squash halves cut-side down on a rimmed baking sheet. Bake in a 400 degrees F oven until the squash is tender, 40 to 50 minutes.)
• Meanwhile, combine eggs, sauerkraut, breadcrumbs, kielbasa, scallion whites and pepper in a large bowl. Let the squash cool for about 10 minutes, then use a fork to scrape it from the shells into the bowl with the sauerkraut mixture.
• Position rack in upper third of oven; preheat broiler.
• Heat oil in a large cast-iron or enamel-coated skillet over medium-high heat. Spread the squash mixture evenly in the skillet. Reduce heat to medium and cook, undisturbed, until browned on the bottom, 5 to 8 minutes. Sprinkle with cheese and the reserved scallion greens. Broil until browned on top, 4 to 6 minutes.

CAN'T STOP EATING KIELBASA SPAGHETTI

Steps:

• Slice kielbasa into bite sized pieces and saute over medium high heat in a dutch oven or large pot. Stir occasionally until browned on both sides and slightly caramelized. Remove from pot, cover, keep warm.
• Using the juices from the kielbasa, sauté onions until soft (add a little oil if needed) and just as onions become soft, add garlic and sauté 1 minute.
• Add diced tomatoes, tomato paste, and beef broth. Stir until combined.
• Add spices and return kielbasa to pot. Bring to a slight boil then simmer over low heat for 30-60 minutes.
• Prepare the pasta according to package directions about 10-15 minutes before meat sauce is ready. When ready to serve, combine pasta and meat sauce and serve with garlic bread. If you prefer, you can serve the noodles plain with the meat sauce on top of it.
