Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 spaghetti squash
  • olive oil spray or other cooking spray of choice
  • 1 teaspoon sea salt more or less as desired
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper more or less as desired

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 375º. Chop the squash in half lengthwise. Scrape out the seeds and guts.
  2. Place halves cut side down and slice horizontally. These slices should create half moons about 3/4" to 1" thick.
  3. Arrange half moons on a parchment-lined baking sheet and spritz with olive oil or cooking spray of choice. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
  4. Bake 30 minutes, remove from oven, and use a fork to strip the "spaghetti" away from the squash rind.

Notes

You can add any seasonings that you like to the squash before cooking. I like to add Italian seasoning, garlic, cayenne, chipotle, etc. depending on what I'll be using the spaghetti squash for.
