Servings 12 sliders
Ingredients
pulled BBQ spaghetti squash
- 1 spaghetti squash
- 2 teaspoon olive oil
- sea salt & ground black pepper, to taste
- ½ C onion, finely chopped
- 2 teaspoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Club House Organic garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon Club House Organic cumin
- ½ teaspoon Club House Organic paprika
- ¼ teaspoon Club House Organic crushed red pepper
- 2 tablespoon low-sodium vegetable stock
- ¼ C Club House La Grille Wild Whiskey Smoked BBQ Sauce
coleslaw
- 4 C pre-made bagged coleslaw mix
- ⅓ C vegan mayonnaise
- 1 teaspoon dijon mustard
- ground black pepper, to taste
sandwiches
- small buns, lightly toasted
- dill pickles, sliced
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F.
- Prepare the spaghetti squash by cutting it in half, lengthwise. Scoop out the inside seeds and pulp. Add 1 teaspoon of olive oil per side, and sea salt and ground black pepper. Use your hands to spread the oil, salt, and pepper evenly around the inside flesh of the squash.
- Place the squash inside down onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or in a wide baking dish. Bake for approximately 45 minutes (depends on the size of the squash) until tender and you can easily poke the outside skin with a fork.
- While the squash is baking, prepare the coleslaw by combining vegan mayonnaise and dijon mustard with the coleslaw mix. Add ground black pepper to taste and refrigerate this until ready to assemble the sliders.
- Just before the squash is finished baking, heat 2 teaspoons of olive oil in a pan over medium heat. Add onions and sauté for 2 minutes until softened.
- Add garlic powder, cumin, paprika, and crushed red pepper and sauté for another 2 to 3 minutes. Then add low-sodium vegetable stock to lift everything off the pan.
- Remove the squash from the oven and scrape the inside flesh of the squash out with a fork. Add all of this to the pan.
- Allow most of the stock to be absorbed before adding the BBQ sauce. Once you’ve added the sauce, stir to coat all the squash and heat through for 3 to 5 minutes, then remove the pan from the heat.
- Toast the slider buns in the oven if desired, and thinly slice pickles.
- Assemble the sliders by placing a bit of coleslaw on the bottom bun, then add pickle slices, and top with a good portion of pulled BBQ spaghetti squash. Serve immediately!
Notes
You could bake the squash ahead of time and then prepare it in the pan the day of, before assembling and serving the sliders.
