As I found out, it is super easy to prepare!
First, stab about 5 holes randomly in the spaghetti squash. Put it on a microwave safe plate and cook on high in the microwave for 10 minutes, turning it 3 times. The squash is done when the skin gives a little when pressed. Add more time, if needed.
Cut squash in half, and let cool a little. Scoop out seeds with a spoon.
Using a fork, scrape out the squash. It will look like spaghetti!
Melt a little butter in a skillet and add the squash, some salt & pepper and a sprinkling of basil. Saute for a couple minutes and serve.
See how easy that was? Enjoy!
Spaghetti squash is also great with your favorite sauce!!

ReplyDeleteI tried to substitute it for pasta one time but it just didn't seem right to me - not squishy enough? But I do bowls of chopped up zucchini and red meat sauce all the time.
