Spaghetti Squash Brunch Bake With Cheddar

1 tablespoon unsalted butter, melted
1 small red bell pepper, cored, seeded and cut into 1/4 inch dice
2 fresh jalapeno chilies, seeded and cut into 1/8 inch dice
2 cups packed, cooked spaghetti squash
1 cup fresh corn kernels or frozen corn, thawed
1 teaspoon dried oregano, preferably Mexican, crumbled
salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
6 large eggs
1/2 cup heavy cream
2 cups grated extra-sharp cheddar cheese

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

In a small skillet over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the bell pepper and jalapenos and saute approximately 5 minutes, or until tender. Transfer to a medium bowl. Add the squash, corn and oregano to the bowl. Mix well and season with salt and pepper.

In a second bowl, beat the eggs with the cream until blended. Pour over the squash mixture and add 1 1/2 cups of the cheese. Mix well. Pour into a 9 inch square glass baking dish. Sprinkle the remaining
1/2 cup cheese evenly over the top.

Bake in the oven 30 to 40 minutes, or until set. Let cool slightly, then serve.
Serves 4.
