Cheesy Bacon Spaghetti Squash

This is a really quick meal to make.  And so yummy!

• 1 large spaghetti squash (3 1/2 lbs. or larger)
• 4 bacon strips, chopped
• 3 tablespoon butter
• 1 tablespoon brown sugar
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon pepper
• 1/2 cup (2-oz,) shredded Swiss cheese (or any cheese you prefer)

Halve squash lengthwise; discard seeds.  Place squash on a microwave-safe plate, cut side down; microwave on high until tender, 15-20 minutes.  Cool slightly.  Separate strands with a fork.

In a large skillet, cook the bacon over medium heat until crisp, stirring occasionally.  With a slotted spoon, remove bacon to paper towels, reserve drippings.

In same pan, heat drippings over medium heat; stir in butter, brown sugar, salt and pepper until blended.  Add squash; toss and heat through.  Remove from heat, stir in cheese.  Top with bacon.

4 servings.
