Properly Prepared Spaghetti Squash image

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350-375.
  • Halve raw spaghetti squash with a sturdy sharp knife, scoop out, and discard the squash poop with a spoon.
  • Place halves onto an oven safe cooking dish face up.
  • Clean head of garlic and thinly slice garlic, (the larger pieces of garlic brown nicely, and offer a wonderful layer of complexity to the dish).
  • Spread garlic into the bowl like shape of the squash, salt and pepper vigorously, drizzle with a 50/50 mixture of olive oil, and vegetable oil (get the oil everywhere inside the squash).
  • Place onto the upper middle rack of the oven for about 30-40 minutes. (You will know it is ready when the squash separates with little resistance from the skin).
  • Remove from oven, and place in coldest location possible for at least 20 minutes, before separating from skin.
  • Use a fork to scoop and separate squash strands, add any other ingredients you like at this point.
  • Parmesan, Romano, or Pecorino, Feta, are all excellent additions to this dish, as well as, meat, sausage, veggies, olives, the list is endless.
  • WARNING **** If you use a loose tomato based sauce DO NOT add it immediately to the squash; this makes the squash runny, mushy, and unpalatable. Instead garnish the dish with a little bit of sauce atop the squash, and then offer more sauce on the side, in a separate dish.
  • If you ever had it served this way you know what I mean.
  • You can also take any leftovers and add a little bit of flour, and make into patties and fry.

Caprese Spaghetti Squash Recipe by Tasty image

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400ºF (200ºC).
  • With a sharp knife, slice the squash in half. If the squash is too tough, puncture in several places forming a dotted line around the squash. Microwave for 3-5 minutes to soften. Allow to cool before cutting in half.
  • Scoop out the seeds, brush with oil, and sprinkle with salt, and pepper. Bake for 40-45 minutes, or until a fork can easily pierce the skin.
  • In a pan over medium heat, add the oil, garlic, and onions, and sautè until onions are translucent.
  • Add the cherry tomatoes, salt, and pepper and simmer until they are cooked and begin to become softened.
  • Remove squash from the oven, with a fork pull at the edges to produce that stringy "spaghetti" quality. Add the squash to the tomato mixture and mix in the pan.
  • Add mixture back to the hollowed out spaghetti squash halves. Top with mini mozzarella balls ans basil.
  • Bake an additional 5-10 minutes, or until cheese melts.
  • Serve in the squash, and top with basil.
  • Enjoy!

  • Spaghetti Squash Carbonara. Enjoy a classic carbonara by simply swapping the spaghetti for squash. This recipe has you slice the squash in half, remove the seeds, and roast until tender.
  • Pressure Cooker Spaghetti Squash. In addition to being delicious, spaghetti squash is versatile. It can be cooked in a variety of ways, not just with a long roast in the oven.
  • Spaghetti Squash Pad Thai. Spaghetti squash pad Thai is a twist on a favorite takeout dish. The squash replaces rice noodles and it includes fish sauce, cilantro, tamarind, scallion, garlic, bean sprouts, and roasted peanuts.
  • Stuffed Spaghetti Squash. Stuffed spaghetti squash is a delicious main dish or side and the squash doubles as the serving bowl. The roasted squash is filled with cherry tomatoes, garlic, onion, Swiss chard, and Parmesan cheese.
  • Instant Pot Spaghetti Squash With Sage Brown Butter Sauce. In the short time it takes to cook spaghetti squash in the Instant Pot, you can prepare a savory brown butter sauce on the stove.
  • Spaghetti Squash Alfredo. Alfredo sauce is traditionally paired with linguini pasta, but it works just as well coating tender spaghetti squash. This vegetarian alfredo dish is topped with broccoli, but you can add grilled chicken or shrimp if you like.
  • Spaghetti Squash With Tomatoes and Parmesan. Give spaghetti squash the full pasta treatment by tossing the cooked strands with tomatoes, butter, garlic, fresh basil, and Parmesan cheese.
  • Microwave Spaghetti Squash. Spaghetti squash can be quickly and easily steamed in the microwave. Remove the stem and cut in half before removing the seeds and stringy goop in the middle.
  • Spaghetti Squash Casserole With Ground Beef. For a Mexican take on spaghetti squash, combined the cooked strands with ground beef, bell pepper, onion, garlic, tomato, and cheddar cheese and bake.
