Ingredients:
1 small spaghetti squash (about 3-4 pounds)
2 tablespoons butter
2 cloves garlic, finely minced
1/4 cup finely chopped fesh basil
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup shredded Parmesan cheese
Directions:
Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Bake spaghetti squash for 60 minutes (it’s easy – just wash it and put it on a cookie sheet). Let squash cool for 10 minutes.
Cut squash in half, lengthwise (I also cut off the ends as I found it helps).
Use a spoon to remove and discard the seeds.
Use a fork to scrape the squash to get long, lovely strands. I was surprised to find how easily it falls from the skin into nice strands that resemble spaghetti noodles). If the squash seem difficult to scrape, return the squash to bake for an additional 10 minutes.
I found that you can bake the squash ahead of time and store the spaghetti like strands in the refrigerator until you are ready to make the dish. You will just have to increase your cook time a little since you will be starting with cold squash.
