2 teaspoons butter, melted

1 spaghetti squash, halved and seeded

1 pound ground beef

1 (14.5 ounce) can diced tomatoes, drained

½ (8 ounce) package sliced fresh mushrooms

¼ cup diced red onion

¼ cup diced green bell pepper

1 clove garlic, chopped

½ teaspoon dried oregano

½ teaspoon dried basil

¼ teaspoon salt

¼ teaspoon ground black pepper

1 pinch dried thyme

2 ½ cups shredded mozzarella cheese

1 cup crushed buttery round crackers (such as Ritz®)

Brush butter lightly over squash halves. Cover with aluminum foil.

Bake in the preheated oven until easily pierced with a fork, about 40 minutes. Cool until easily handled, about 15 minutes.

Preheat a large skillet over medium heat. Add ground beef; cook and stir until browned, about 5 minutes. Stir in tomatoes, mushrooms, red onion, green bell pepper, garlic, oregano, basil, salt, pepper, and thyme; cook, stirring occasionally, until flavors combine, 6 to 8 minutes.

Scrape squash flesh into the skillet; mix into the beef mixture. Spoon into a large casserole dish. Fold in mozzarella cheese; top with crushed crackers.

Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, about 40 minutes.

Chop 2 fresh tomatoes instead of using canned diced tomatoes if desired.
