Instructions
MICROWAVE OPTION
- Halve the spaghetti squash and remove seeds.
- Place the prepared spaghetti squash flesh side down in a 13×9 glass baking dish.
- Fill the dish with about 1″ of water.
- Place baking dish in the microwave and cook for 15-20 minutes per squash, until squash is tender.
- Remove the spaghetti squash from the pan and let it cool for a few mins. Using a fork, gently scrape the inside of the squash to create spaghetti-like pieces of squash.
OVEN OPTION
- Preheat the oven to 400°F.
- Slice the spaghetti squash in half lengthwise and scoop out the seeds and ribbing. Drizzle or spray the inside of the squash with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
- Place the spaghetti squash cut side down on the baking sheet and use a fork to poke holes. Roast for 30 to 40 minutes or until lightly browned on the outside, fork-tender, but still a little bit firm. The time will vary depending on the size of your squash. I also find that the timing can vary from squash to squash.
- Remove from the oven and flip the squash so that it’s cut side up. When cool to the touch, use a fork to scrape and fluff the strands from the sides of the squash.
FINISH UP
- Place spaghetti squash in a bowl with parmesan cheese or vegan parmesan, fresh basil, olive oil, garlic powder, ground pepper, and salt to taste. Toss to combine and serve.
