Spring Spaghetti Squash

Spring Spaghetti Squash

I had some spaghetti squash once in the fall and it was soooooo good, but since then the commissary hasn’t had any. Well, they showed up again in the produce section, so YAY! I bought 3 of them and have been eating this:

Amaaaaazing.

  1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit.
  2. Meanwhile, de-seed and chop a tomato and cut your spaghetti squash in half lengthwise.
  3. Scoop out the spaghetti squash’s seeds and discard or save to toast.
  4. Place spaghetti squash halves cut-side-down in a glass baking dish and bake for 40 minutes.
  5. Cool until you can handle it, then use a fork to scrape the “noodles” out of the squash into a bowl.
  6. Drizzle with a little bit of olive oil and balsamic vinegar.
  7. Top with tomatoes, oregano, basil, and salt.
  8. Sprinkle with parmesan cheese if you’d like.
  9. Enjoy!

  • jose, throw it in the compost. I don't think there's anything you can do with it in the kitchen.

    I microwave my squash. Cut in half. Place half, flesh side down, on a plate. Add 1/2 cup water on the place/under the squash. Seal tight with saran wrap. Microwave on high for 5-6 minutes. Cook shorter or longer depending on how al dente you like your squash 'noodles' - much faster than the oven!
  • I made this tonight, and we all loved it - including the kids! The mild flavor of the speghetti squash really makes it work, wheras other types of squash would surely be too sweet. Thank you!
