Betty Spaghetti. . .squash!

Spaghetti squash. . .oh how I love thee!!!  You fill me up without the heaviness of carbs, and you taste superb!  We are friends, and will be friends forever!  If only you didn't take 40 minutes to cook when I am starving, we could be considered besties!!!

Have you ever tried Spaghetti squash?  No?  Come hither and find out how I do it!!!


Start with la squash!  No brainer right???  I had my brutishly strong husband cut it in half for me since I didn't want to whop off my finger in the process!  I then took a large spoon and scraped out the seeds and crazy looking stringy stuff in the middle until the squash halves looked like the above photo!!!

I then flipped my halves over on the cookie sheet sprayed with cooking spray like so:


I then roasted the squash at 375 for 40 minutes!

After the squash came out of the oven. . .I LET IT COOL for about 10 minutes before I forked out the strands!!!  If you don't. . .you just might burn your little fingers!!!


Forkety fork away!!!  Both sides. . .until I cleaned out the halves!



Enjoy!
