Gather the Ingredients

Let’s Get Started
First, decide if you will be roasting you squash in the Instant Pot or oven.
Instant Pot: Cut squash in half, scoop out seeds. Pour one cup of water in bottom of IP. Place trivet in bottom and place squash in, set to 7 minutes on manual. Do a quick release. Cool.

Oven: Cut squash in half, scoop out seeds. Bake at 350° for 1 hour.
Meanwhile, brown meat in pan, breaking into small bits. When done, remove from heat and add the jar of Alfredo.

In a small bowl, whisk together ricotta, egg, parsley and garlic. Salt and pepper to taste.

Once the squash has cooled, use a fork to scrap the flesh. It will start to look like strings of spaghetti!

Layer the dish with the spaghetti squash on the bottom, 1/2 the meat mixture, then 1/2 the ricotta mixture, then 1/2 of the baby spinach, followed by 1/2 of the cheese. Repeat layers starting with the meat.
