Squash Spaghetti or Spaghetti Squash?

Either way you say it

SO tasty and healthy!

Here's what you do...

Bake a medium-size spaghetti squash

at 350 degrees for one hour until tender

See my knife mark 

inserted to make sure it's done?

"Done" if your knife goes in easily!

Cool the squash

Then split lengthwise into halves

Clean out the pulp and seeds

by scraping the sides of the squash

with a knife or spoon

Save the "goo" in a bowl

why?

the seeds can be cleaned, baked and eaten!

your cleaned squash will

look something like this...

now to turn a squash into spaghetti noodles...

Hold one squash half upright

scrap the inside with a fork

MAGICALLY

strands of squash appear similar to noodles

Both halves will make about 2-3 cups of noodles

your hulls will look like this when completely

cleaned out

I removed the dark spots in my noodles

caused by cooking

not really necessary but 

it makes your dish prettier.

Place a serving of squash noodles in a plate

Top with your favorite gluten-free marinara or meat sauce

and you have

Squash Spaghetti or is it Spaghetti Squash?

I was apprehensive about serving this to my hubby

he loved it so much

I'm making it for the guys at his office!

I love him 

because...

 he's so unpredictable

Oh the squash-abilities,
