Instructions

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Heat an oven safe skillet or cast iron pan over medium/high heat. Add olive oil, onion, 1/4 teaspoon salt, pepper, and thyme. Cook for 3-5 minutes until onions begin to soften. Add the minced garlic and cook an additional minute. Turn off heat and set aside.
Scoop the cooked spaghetti squash noodles into a large bowl. Add 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/2 cup cheese. Stir to combine. Stir in the onion mixture until well combined.
Pour mixture back into the pan and layer the sliced zucchini on top in a single layer. Drizzle lightly with olive oil then top with remaining shredded cheese (plus a little more if you’re feeling crazy). Bake for 25-30 minutes until cheese is bubbly on top. Serve immediately.
