You will need someone strong to get into this sucker. Or at least a really good knife. It has a really thick skin, but once you are in, you are good to go.
Spaghetti Squash
1 spaghetti squash
toppings: Spaghetti sauce or butter, salt and pepper etc.
Slice squash in half length wise. Core out the seeds/pulp, like you would a pumpkin etc. Discard pulp. Put squash on a cookie sheet rind side down. Cook at 375 degrees for 35-40 min. (you can also microwave it for 6-8 minutes)
Allow to sit for a few minutes. Scrape the strands out by running a fork through it from end to end of the peel. Serve with spaghetti sauce or butter, salt and pepper. Enjoy!
I just tried this amazing squash for the first time last week. We just put the squash, totally whole, into a giant pot and boiled for 45-60 minutes. Once you gut into it, it strings apart with the fork beautifully. Ate it with some pesto alfredo pasta and I like the sauce over the squash more than the pasta!
