Spaghetti Squash with Sausage and Apples

This is my favorite fall dish. I have to stop myself from eating the whole pan but it makes great leftovers.

1 Spaghetti squash (whatever size fits your family)
Sausage (I use the Jimmy Dean reduced fat 12 oz but the regular sausage is a bigger size)
1/4 cup brown sugar
2 apples, peeled, cored and sliced
1 T butter

Cut spaghetti squash, remove seeds and microwave for 10-20 minutes depending on size. You can do this in the morning and let it cool off. Using a fork remove the "spaghetti" and place in a baking dish. Over medium heat, brown and crumple sausage. Add brown sugar and stir to coat sausage. Add apples. Combine sausage mixture to spaghetti squash in baking dish. Sprinkle extra brown sugar optional. Dot with butter. Cover and bake at 350 for 30 minutes. Remove cover for last 5 minutes.

Enjoy!!
