Primal Bacon Cheeseburger "Mac and Cheese"

I've been working on this recipe for a while now, and have finally decided it's ready for public consumption. Please note that because I use cheese, it's not strictly Paleo.

Ingredients:
1 large spaghetti squash
1 lb ground beef
1/2 to 2/3 lb bacon
l large onion, finely diced
2 tablespoons coconut flour
2 tablespoons bacon grease
2 tablespoons butter
2 + tablespoons coconut milk
1 1/2 cups cheddar cheese, shredded
1 1/2 cups monterey jack cheese, shredded


Cut spaghetti squash in half, lengthwise. Scoop out seeds. Place in in baking dish, inside down in one inch of water. Bake spaghetti squash at 350 degrees until done. About 45 minutes. Spaghetti squash is done when it's tender on the inside, and the outside is slightly browned.While the spaghetti squash is cooking, dice and then cook bacon in a skillet. Place bacon in large bowl. Then brown the hamburger and onion in the skillet. Also place these in the bowl. When spaghetti squash is done, go ahead and shred it. Keep the baking dish out as you'll use it again. If you've never done this before, hold the squash with one fork and shred it with the other. Add the squash to the bowl of meat and onions. In the skillet, add the bacon grease, butter, and coconut flour. Whisk to make a roux and add milk until it reaches the desired consistency. You want a sauce. Add the sauce to the spaghetti squash and meat. Mix it in the bowl and add two and a half cups of cheese. Pour mixture into the baking dish and top with the rest of the cheese. Bake about forty minutes, or until cheese on top is golden brown.
