Spaghetti Squash Spaghetti Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Place the squash halves into a large baking dish with the cut-sides facing down.
• Bake in the preheated oven until easily pierced with a knife, about 40 minutes. Cool squash for 10 minutes.
• Shred the inside of the squash with a fork and transfer to a bowl. Add olive oil, salt, and pepper to shredded squash and toss to coat. Serve with Parmesan cheese.

Steps:

• Take your spaghetti squash and cut in half lengthwise.
• Pierce the skin with a fork on the bottoms.
• Bake the two evenly cut halves of your spaghetti squash in a round, glass baking dish with a light coating of olive oil at 350 degrees until they start to brown and the skin is tender (approx 45 minutes).
• Ready for the veggi saugage? I prefer "GimmeLean" brand as it is virtually fat free, full of protein, and has a wonderful fennel taste. Dice up some garlic, onions, basil and mold into small 1" meatballs.10's a good round number.
• In a sauté pan, sauté round rings of yellow onions, mushrooms, zucchini, and your non-meat meatballs in olive oil until perfectly brown, firm and filling your kitchen with an aroma even Sophia Loren couldn't resist --
• Now to focus on the sauce. Empty the contents of your two cans of Italian style stewed tomatoes in a deep dish pan, add to it everything you just sautéed and don't skimp on the basil or additional garlic. There are no correct portions here -- continue sampling your wooden spoon over and over until its just right.This sauce is meant to be light or it will overpower the squash. I usually add in a splash of red wine to the mix, salt and fresh ground pepper to taste.
• So, hopefully you have timed things so the squash is just finishing up cooking. Remove your squash halves carefully. Let them cool down some. Then, with a fork, begin to scrape out the contents into the pan with your sauce. This is the most enjoyable part of this recipe as it always amazes me to see just how much the fibers of the squash resemble spaghetti! Leave a little squash in each half and use them as the bowls for serving.
• Garnish with organic basil and the dish is ready to serve.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350ºF.
• Pierce squash with fork several times. Microwave on HIGH 15 min. or until tender when pierced with knife.
• Meanwhile, brown meat in large skillet; drain. Return to skillet. Stir in pasta sauce and 1/2 tsp. seasoning; bring to boil. Simmer on medium-low heat 5 to 8 min. or until slightly thickened.
• Cut squash in half; remove seeds. Scrape squash into large bowl. Add flour; toss to coat. Add butter, eggs, Parmesan and garlic; mix lightly. Spoon into 10-inch pie plate sprayed with cooking spray; top with meat sauce, leaving 1/2-inch rim around edge. Top with shredded cheese and remaining seasoning.
• Bake 30 to 35 min. or until squash mixture is heated through and cheese is lightly browned.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°. Slice squash lengthwise and scoop out seeds. Place squash, cut side down, in a baking dish. Add water and cover tightly with foil. Bake until easily pierced with a fork, 20-30 minutes. Meanwhile, in a large skillet, cook beef over medium heat until no longer pink, breaking into crumbles; drain. Add onion, green pepper, herbs and seasonings; cook and stir until onion is tender, 5-7 minutes. Stir in tomato puree. Cover and cook over low heat, stirring occasionally. Scoop out squash, separating the strands with a fork. Just before serving; stir 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese into meat sauce. Serve sauce over spaghetti squash with remaining 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese.
