Ingredients
  

  • 1-2 medium spaghetti squash

Instructions

  • Pick your squash, cut it in half and remove strings and seeds. Wrap cut side of each in foil.  Lay each half, cut side-down, on a baking sheet with enough water to cover the surface of the baking sheet.
  • Bake in an oven preheated to 375 F for 30 minutes, or until fork tender (cook time will vary depending on the size of your squash).  The skin will start to bubble a bit when it is totally done.  Remove from the oven and allow to sit until it is cool enough to handle.
  • Comb through the open sides of the cooked squash from top to bottom with a fork, creating lengths of  “noodles.”  Serve warm with your favorite pasta sauce or use in noodle dishes like Pad Thai!
  • PS- if today’s World Pasta Day has you hankering for a more traditional noodle, try my easy homemade ravioli recipe!
