Instructions
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
Cut the whole squash in half vertically so you end up with 2 pieces.
Drizzle the flesh side of the squash with oil and then sprinkle with salt, and pepper.
Place the spaghetti squash halves cut side down on an aluminum foil lined sheet pan. Bake for 30 minutes (until fork tender) in the preheated oven.
While the squash is baking cook your chicken by your preferred method if needed. If you are using a rotisserie chicken you can skip cooking chicken.
Remove the squash from the oven and use a fork to break up the flesh into noodles. Place the spaghetti squash noodles into a large mixing bowl.
Add the chicken, cheese, hot sauce, yogurt, jalapeno peppers, whites of the green onions, salt, and pepper into the spaghetti squash noodles and mix well until everything is combined.
Place the shells on a foil lined baking sheet, with the empty side up. Divided the buffalo chicken mixture into the two empty shells of the squash.
Top the squash with the remainder of the cheddar cheese.
Place them under the broiler in the oven until they get golden brown.
Drizzle the top with a drizzle of ranch and the greens from the green onions.
