This is a very easy & fast meal to make or it could even be just a side dish.  I came up with this idea when I had some homemade leftover creamed spinach.  "Use what you have."  I wanted to make something different then my normal spaghetti squash recipes.  Since the creamed spinach already had cheese in it, nothing needed to be added to it.  It became a sauce just like this recipe did.  Since I had no more leftovers I decided to make my own version of it.  Other options could be to use a different cooking creme by Philadelphia or use your favorite Laughing Cow flavored cheese triangles.  There are a quite a few different flavors to choose from, just check your local grocery store.  You could also replace the squash with a pasta of your choice.
